About Pilates
Pilates is a Mind-Body method of exercise
that was pioneered and developed during the last century by Joseph
Hubertus Pilates. The Pilates method is a safe, low impact and highly
effective way to strengthen, stretch and streamline your body.
For years, Pilates method has been the well-kept secret of dancers
and athletes who were dedicated to balancing their bodies and optimizing
their potential. Fortunately, in the last 25 years, Pilates has
spread widely and today we can all enjoy the benefits of the method.
The specialised equipment and the unique exercises are designed
to help you develop optimal strength, flexibility, posture and balance
without building bulk or stressing joints.
Pilates is great on its own, and at the same time, it is the perfect
complement to cardiovascular exercise, athletic training and rehabilitative
therapies such as physiotherapy, chiropractic treatment and osteopathy.
Pilates is excellent as a post-natal exercise routine and is ideal
during a normal healthy pregnancy to maintain strength and balance,
to deal with special circumstances and to prepare for delivery.
A consistent program of Pilates exercises will reward you with a
strong sense of centre and balance. Every workout will leave you
looking toned, feeling revitalized and moving with ease. |
