What Is Pilates?
Pilates is a low-impact exercise method that focuses on strengthening the core, improving posture, flexibility, and body awareness. It involves controlled, precise movements performed on a mat or specialized equipment, engaging deep muscles to support stability and alignment. Pilates benefits include enhanced muscle tone, better flexibility, improved balance, and reduced pain, making it suitable for people of all fitness levels, including those recovering from injuries or seeking to boost athletic performance.
How It Works
Pilates works by guiding you through controlled, precise movements that engage your deep core muscles to improve stability, posture, and flexibility. Exercises can be performed on a mat using body weight or small equipment like resistance bands and balls. Additionally, specialized Pilates machines (Reformer, Cadillac, and Chair) use springs to provide adjustable resistance, helping to challenge muscles safely and effectively. A personal trainer will lead the practice to ensure proper alignment, breathing, and technique.
