Pilates is a low-impact exercise system that focuses on building core strength, stability, and flexibility. Using around 50 repetitive exercises, Pilates promotes muscle exertion while encouraging proper body alignment and breathing techniques.
Each exercise is designed to flow from the ‘five essentials’—breath, cervical alignment, rib and scapular stabilization, pelvic mobility, and using the deepest abdominal muscles- transversus abdominis. Joining our Pilates Mat classes that focus on classic mat exercises will help you develop core strength, stability, and flexibility. It will lead to better balance and coordination and improved posture.
