IS PILATES FOR YOU?

What is Pilates?

Picture
Pilates is an approach to exercise that aims to improve strength, flexibility and posture.  It started off as a rehabilitation program for war casualties and has been developed to assist almost anyone from elite dancers to lower back recovery and elderly fitness programs. 

Pilates utilises a range of exercises that focuses on control, breathing and flowing movement.  The exercises target the smaller stabilising muscles around the trunk and help to lengthen and improve the function and alignment of the spine.


What are the benefits of pilates?

Picture
Pilates can be tailored to benefit almost anyone however the core benefits are consistent across most pilates programs.  These include:
 - Improved deep spine stabilisers (core strength)
 - Improved posture and alignment
 - Better breathing patterns and deeper breathing
 - Cardiovasular benefits without needing high impact exercise
 - Better flexibility
 - Stress relief through developing better connection between mind and body
 - Injury prevention through better muscle balance and improving the problem areas in your body.
