STRONG IS THE NEW SKINNY
PILATES
100 YEARS & GOING STRONG
Pilates is a low impact yet highly effective intelligent exercise method that strengthens muscles, improves posture & enhances flexibility.
It has its beginnings in rehabilitation during WW1 and is an excellent fitness method for any goal: improving strength to rehabilitating injuries.
The focus maybe on the powerhouse (or the core) but a good Pilates class should work your full body - from the inside out!
in 10 sessions, you feel better,
in 20 sessions, you look better,
in 30 sessions, you have a new body
Quote from Joseph Pilates for anyone who did a month of practice with him!
MAT PILATES
The traditional Mat Pilates repertoire consists of 36 exercises crafted by Joseph Pilates to strengthen the core, mobilize the spine, stabilize the pelvis, strengthen & mobiles the shoulder girdle and create strong limbs. Classes use props such as bands & balls but no Pilates apparatus - thus the term "mat" Pilates.
Prepare to walk away from your Mat Pilates class feeling centered, grounded and lighter.
REFORMER PILATES
A Reformer is a Pilates apparatus invented by Joseph Pilates comprising a carriage, straps and springs - the springs provide differing levels of resistance - keeping you on your toes! Reformer exercises help build strength, stability, mobility and flexibility all whilst promoting wide range of motion movements leading to better posture, alignment and muscle balance.
The Reformer is a hugely versatile piece of exercise equipment making it one of the most sought after & premium forms of fitness in the world.
