What is Pilates?
Pilates aims to strengthen the body in an even way, with particular emphasis on core strength to improve general fitness and wellbeing.
When performed correctly it can be a tough workout, and if performed regularly it can improve flexibility, strength and co-ordination. Exercises can be graded to your ability, and so can be progressed as you improve.
Pilates can be used in the rehabilitation of certain injuries, as a means of cross-training, or conditioning, or in the prevention of injuries or simply for general fitness. Our emphasis is on enjoyment. Whilst the exercise needs to be challenging, it also needs to be fun!
Benefits of pilates include;
⇒ Improved posture ⇒ Better Balance ⇒ Reduced injury risk ⇒ Increased Strength ⇒ Enhanced Core Strength ⇒ Improved Flexibility
