Innovative system of mind-body exercises evolved from the principles of Joseph Pilates. Pilates builds strength without excess bulk, creating a sleek, toned body. It teaches body awareness, good posture, and easy graceful movement. Pilates is a safe, sensible exercise system that will help you look and feel your very best. No matter what your age or condition. After beginning a pilates based exercise regime clients can expect to gain more control and awareness of their bodies when performing everyday life activites.

Pilates is a full body-conditioning program comprised of a series of approximately 500 movements performed on the mat or specific apparatus. Although pilates was developed over 75 years ago and was initially used by dancers and athletes, it is becoming one of the most popular exercise methods of the 90’s.

Pilates emphasizes proper breathing, correct spinal and pelvic alignment, and concentration. This will help you become in tune with how your body feels in space, and even better how to control body movements. The method reshapes the body from the inside out. It brings about muscle balance, and spinal alignment which improves posture and body contour. Strengthening through lengthening dramatically reshapes hips, thighs, and buttocks through abdominal control.
