General information

The Pilates method uses a reformer, wunda chair, cadillac, magic circle and
other specifically designed pieces of equipment and floor exercises to
promote uniform development of the musculature of the body, this allows for
the weaker and less developed muscles to activate and strengthen in support
of the stronger more developed muscles, Pilates focuses on the core muscles
first, specifically the stomach, buttocks and back, in a sense, working the
muscles from the inside out. This achieves and maintains a balanced and
aligned body which lends to general fitness and body awareness, re
patterning incorrect muscular motor patterns is great for remedial and
rehabilitation work, improvement of technique for athletes and dancers,
injury prevention, improved balance & range of motion, improved alignment
and posture, enhanced breathing, circulation & overall health, balance
between strength and flexibility, improved muscle tone, energy,
coordination & mental concentration, awareness of strength and dynamic
stability, promotes relaxation and a general sense of well being. Reaping
the benefits of stretch like in yoga but with added strength.
