Offering SPECIALIZED Pilates Classes
TO MAINTAIN STRENGTH, LENGTH AND CONTROL IN YOUR BODY
While Pilates training focuses on core strength, it also trains the body as an integrated whole. Pilates classes promote stability, balanced muscle development, flexibility, and increased range of motion for the joints.
Attention to core support and full-body fitness, including the breath and the mind, provide a level of integrative fitness that is hard to find elsewhere. It is also why Pilates is so popular in rehab scenarios and with athletes who find it a great foundation for any movement.
Whether you are a senior just starting to exercise, an elite athlete, or somewhere in between, the foundations of the Pilates movement apply to you. Building from core strength, focusing on proper alignment, and a body/mind integrative approach make Pilates accessible to all. Pilates workouts can be tailored to individual needs with thousands of possible exercises and modifications.
Long, lean muscles are the name of the game here. In Pilates, we are not looking to build muscles for show. We are building toned muscles that work perfectly within the context of the body as a whole and the functional fitness needs of a person as they move through life.
In Pilates, we work toward a safe increase in length and stretch of the muscles and range of motion within the joints. A body that can stretch and bend to meet the flow of life is a very realistic goal.
The body's core muscles are the deep muscles of the back, abdomen, and pelvic floor. These are the muscles we rely on to support a strong, supple back, good posture, and efficient movement patterns. When the core is strong, the frame of the body is supported. This means the neck and shoulders can relax, and the rest of the muscles and joi
The body's core muscles are the deep muscles of the back, abdomen, and pelvic floor. These are the muscles we rely on to support a strong, supple back, good posture, and efficient movement patterns. When the core is strong, the frame of the body is supported. This means the neck and shoulders can relax, and the rest of the muscles and joints are freed to do their jobs. A nice side benefit is that the core training promotes the flat abs that we all covet.
Good posture reflects good alignment supported by a strong core. It is a position from which one can move freely.
Pilates gets the breath and circulation moving, stimulates the spine and muscles, and floods the body with good feelings from exercising the whole body.

If you practice Pilates regularly, it will change your body. Known for creating long, strong muscles and a leaner look, Pilates improves muscle tone, balances musculature, supports beautiful posture, and teaches you to move with ease and grace. If you want to lose weight, the formula for weight loss remains the same: Burn more calories than you take in. As a full-body fitness method, Pilates will help you do that. Combined with aerobic activity, Pilates becomes a prime weight loss and body toning tool.
Joseph Pilates was adamant that Pilates, or Contrology as he called it, was about "the complete coordination of body, mind, and spirit." This is one of the secrets of Pilates exercise: we practice each movement with total attention. When we exercise in this way, the body and mind unite to bring forth the most benefit possible from each exercise.
These are all key concepts that we use to integrate body and mind.
