HOW DOES IT WORK?

Pilates targets the deep postural muscles and works by building strength from the inside out. Directed at correcting muscle imbalances for both strength and flexibility. Pilates helps to reshape your body, which will become longer, leaner and more toned. Your breathing will become more efficient, your posture and balance will improve; your movements will become more flowing and effortless; unwanted stress and tension can be dealt with and self managed more effectively.

WHO IS IT FOR?

Pilates is ideal for someone who has never done an exercise class before to the professional athlete. Its slow, controlled approach means that it gives longer term results. Pilates offers both mental and physical training, literally teaching you to be in control of your body. Athletes will use Pilates to enhance their performance and avoid the risk of injury. By improving body awareness, tension is released from the body and correct postural alignment is taught. You are taught good movement skills, step by step, which will ultimately give you the confidence and skill to alter any previous faulty movement patterns, which may be contributing to any re-occurring aches and pains. pilates and posture
