Description
Are you looking for a great low impact class with high results? Something to really focus on that troublesome mid-section? Then PILATES is just the thing for you!Pilates, founded as rehabilitation exercises for professional dancers, focuses on slow and controlled movements, all of which include the core (stomach / abdominal muscles). Even when you’re focusing on the arms or legs, your core is engaged and working too.
During the slow and controlled movements, your mind needs to be focused on what you are currently doing so that proper muscles are engaged. That leads to not being able to worry about what’s for dinner, or that meeting tomorrow. Allowing you to focus and working on some stress relief, too.
This is a great class for someone who has never done Pilates or the more experienced. Each movement will have multiple levels, you advance to where you are comfortable.
Strengthening the core muscles not only enhances stability but also plays a crucial role in decreasing back and hip pain. Regular Pilates practice helps improve posture by aligning the spine and promoting better body awareness.
Dress comfortably; no shoes and bare feet (or socks) are generally preferred for this form of exercise. Bring a yoga mat, hand towel and water bottle. If you need a mat, there are limited number available by request.
If you're not sure about the class, try it out for a special DROP-IN rate of $15 per class. Must call ahead to ensure classes are running, prior to registration the same day, if you choose this option.
