What exactly is the Pilates method?

Pilates (pi-LAH-teez) exercise, performed in the U.S. since the 1920’s, is named after it’s inventor, Joseph H. Pilates. The Method encompasses more than 500 controlled, precise movements designed to stretch and strengthen muscles without adding bulk and improve musculoskeletal function. The exercises require concentration and deep coordinated breaths- working body and mind. They focus on the body’s vital energy core (which is abdominal and lower back musculature) to build strength and agility in a balanced way. The exercises are performed on a padded floor mat or with special apparatus such as a Reformer, Cadillac, Wunda Chair, Tower and Magic Circle. Discover the Method that helps you get in touch with your body, focus your mind and revitalize yourself. The spring resistance of the Pilates apparatus will create muscles that are strong, lean and well aligned.

Who are your clients?

I have clients from all walks of life. I enjoy the diverse mix of people that I work with every day.

Is Pilates right for me?

Pilates Mat classes are exercises that are performed lying on your back, side or front. Some the exercises are done seated or on all fours. The Mat Classes can be challenging for some individuals, where the Pilates apparatus instruction would be more appropriate than a class setting. If you have concerns, discuss your exercise program with your healthcare professional for advice.

Because of my extensive training, (over 600 training hours logged) knowledge, and experience my clients receive proven and extremely specific training sessions.

Does Pilates really work?
