About Pilates
Pilates is the king of core strength training, involving a sequence of exercises designed to stretch, strengthen, and balance the body. The core, which includes the upper and lower abdominal muscles, lower back, and buttocks, is the powerhouse of your body, supporting good posture and maintaining overall health and well-being. As you become stronger and more familiar with the exercises, we introduce new challenges to help you progress safely and effectively. The result is a toned, lean, aligned, and strong body without the bulk.
Pilates was devised by Joseph Pilates in the early 1900s as a means of physical fitness and total body well-being. Its six core principles - concentration, centering, precision, flow, control, and breathing - are integral components of each Pilates session. Originally popular amongst dancers, gymnasts, boxers, and professional actors, Pilates has now become accessible to the wider public, from those who want a stronger back or core to those with specific injuries or medical problems. Pilates is a form of total body conditioning that is accessible to people of all ages and all levels of fitness.
Why Pilates?
Pilates is for anyone interested in improving the way they look, feel, and move. It is beneficial for those who have never exercised before as well as those who have exercised all their lives. You will also learn to incorporate Pilates into your day-to-day life, such as how you stand and walk, exercise, sit at your desk, or drive a car. Pilates allows you to move your body, focus your mind, increase body awareness, and balance strength with flexibility.
As with any form of exercise, real change requires commitment. Joseph Pilates said, "in ten sessions you will feel the difference, in twenty you will see the difference, and in thirty you will be on your way to a whole new body".
