Pilates is an exercise method that conditions your whole body. The exercises are designed to strengthen and stretch; muscles will become toned; posture, flexibility and balance are improved. These are mind-body exercises, they are performed at a slow controlled speed with minimum repetitions and maximum concentration. The Pilates system begins by building strength from the core as a foundation, and enables a stronger, more stable spinal column. Pilates balances the body's musculature, strengthening what is weak and stretching what is tight,leaving you with a strong and toned body. You will notice the difference!

 

A Pilates themed class using a wide variety of exercises at all levels to actively engage deep postural muscles.   Learn how to move the body as one unit to promote overall strength by working abdominals, back and gluteus. Toning, lengthening and challenging you to the core! 

Using your own body weight as resistance, this strength and flexibility class incorporates elements of fitness training and yoga to build strength, stamina and balance while stretching your tightest areas!  This class will help you increase energy and self-confidence as you move to discover your true strength. Attention to breath and alignment will help concentration and fuel the mind/body connection.
