Class Descriptions

Pilates

Pilates method and emphasis is the very large group of muscles in the center of the body - encompassing the abdomen, lower back, hips, and buttocks - the "powerhouse." All energy for Pilates exercises is said to begin from the powerhouse and flow outward to the limbs. In other words, the Pilates technique asserts that physical energy exerted from the center should coordinate movements of the extremities. Pilates felt that it was important to build a strong powerhouse in order to rely on it in daily living. Modern instructors call the powerhouse the "core". Some classes may include stability ball, Thera Bands, mini ball and small weighted balls for added toning. Please bring your own mat and water to drink. (60 Minutes).
