About Pilates

 

Originally developed by legendary physical trainer Joseph H Pilates in the 1920’s, the Pilates Method is a series of approximately 900 exercises performed across a wide range of specifically designed exercise equipment.
 

The core values of Pilates are

Centering – Alignment – Breathing – Control – Precision – Relaxation – Flowing Movement

 

Pilates focuses on all the abdominal groups, pelvic floor, lower back musculature, shoulder blades, hip and backside muscles. This dramatically improves strength, flexibility, posture and coordination.
