About Pilates
Originally designed to facilitate rehabilitation of wartime injury and illness during WWI, Pilates has become the chosen exercise method for todays mindful, fitness enthusiasts who seek health practices which address and benefit one’s entire being.
Universally valued by dancers for decades, Pilates is a movement technique which fully integrates the mind, breath and body as a complete unit through the use of specific, progressive exercises. Each exercise is performed with a conscientious focus on precise alignment and breath rhythm. When executed properly, these exercises yield stronger muscles with greater range of motion. Balance, flexibility, coordination and lung capacity will also show dramatic improvement.
Pilates is not only invaluable as a fitness endeavor in itself but is also the ideal complement to any fitness regimen.
