What sets Lowcountry Power Pilates apart from other Studio’s?
Personalized, safe, caring and effective training.
When you walk into our Classical Boutique Studio, immediately you can notice the difference from other Studio’s. Apart from a clean and professional atmosphere, we have created a welcoming space that offers individualized fitness coaching. Joyce and her team have decades of teaching experience to individuals and groups having a wide variety of fitness goals and physical conditions.
According to Physical Therapist Allison Cabot, Pilates is also unique in that it uses spring resistance instead of weight bearing exercises. * Each exercise focuses on concentration, which helps people with attention difficulties, balance, control, precision, and the fluidity of the movement. Other key components are breath and core stability. Another difference from conventional weight training is that it focuses on facilitating the smaller stabilizing muscles and core musculature.
