PILATES

Pilates helps to increase both your strength and stamina without adding unwanted bulk because it focuses on developing your "core" postural muscles - muscles found in your abdominal and pelvic regions as well as in your back. Pilates exercises also target legs, glutes and arms making it an overall exercise program suitable for strengthening the entire body.

Pilates focuses on developing a stronger core while building strength, flexibility, muscular endurance, balance and good posture.

When Pilates strengthens your core, those muscles that control balance and coordination are also strengthened, helping to prevent falls and injuries. Increased flexibility also allows muscles to lengthen and be more pliable so they can bend and stretch further to alleviate the possibility of injury.
