THE PILATES METHOD

The Pilates Method is a total body-conditioning workout for both men and women consisting of a series of more than 500 specifically designed, low-impact, controlled movements engaging the body and mind. Emphasizing correct breathing and body alignment, The Pilates Method uses the abdomen, lower back and buttocks as the "powerhouse", enabling the rest of the body to move freely. The goal is to develop a high degree of abdominal strength, better posture, stability, greater flexibility of the spine and limbs while combining the power of mind and body. Pilates can help reduce lower back pain, prevent injury, speed up recovery, shrink waist lines and improve high blood pressure, depression and osteoporosis. Pilates has been highly recommended by physical therapists, chiropractors, orthopedic surgeons, and rehabilitation specialists for the greater health and productivity of the physical body.
