Pilates

8 classes Fee: $55

Pilates is a body conditioning routine that helps build flexibility and long, lean muscles, strength and

endurance in the legs, abdominal area, arms, hips and back. It puts emphasis on spinal and pelvic

alignment, breathing to relieve stress and allow adequate oxygen flow to muscles, developing a strong core

or center (tone abdominals while strengthening the back) and improving coordination and balance. Pilates’

flexible system allows for different exercises to be modified in range of difficulty from beginning to

advanced. Intensity can be increased over time as the body conditions and adapts to the exercises. No

muscle group is under or over trained. It enhances core strength and brings increased reach, flexibility,

sure-footedness and agility. Please bring a mat and Pilates ring.

alignment, breathing to relieve stress and allow

adequate oxygen flow to muscles, developing a

strong core or center (tone abdominals while

strengthening the back) and improving

coordination and balance. Pilates’ flexible system

allows for different exercises to be modified in

range of difficultly from beginning to advanced.

Intensity can be increased over time as the body

conditions and adapts to the exercises. No muscle

group is under or over trained. It enhances core

strength and brings increased reach, flexibility,

sure-footedness and agility.
