    What is Pilates?

    Pilates is a physical training technique that teaches the

    muscles to move the bones in the most efficient way.

    The work is effective for rehabilitation, postural
    problems, and overall fitness.

     

    Pilates is normally done on specialized equipment

    and/or mats against the resistance of springs

    and/or the weight of one’s own body.


    As a fitness program, Pilates is a total body workout

    that develops long, lean, toned muscles and full range of motion.

    The gained strength, flexibility, alignment, muscle balance,

    and physical awareness that follow a Pilates program

    can help prevent future risks of injury while
    performing other types of physical activity.

     How does Pilates differ from

    other fitness regimes?

     

    The breathing system is part of the exercise in Pilates.

     

    Pilates always works through movement instead of holding poses.

     

    Pilates lengthens the muscle while strengthening it.

     

    Pilates develops long strong muscles rather than bulky muscles.

     

    Pilates focuses on good posture, joint release, flexibility, and strength.

     

    Pilates can be used for both strength and flexibility training, for rehabilitation, and for injury prevention.

     

    The focus of Pilates is to accomplish everyday tasks with ease and mobility.
