PILATES
Pilates is a series of challenging and invigorating exercises which, once
learned properly, can be practiced anywhere. The carefully constructed
movements are designed to help the student strengthen the core (abdominal
and back) muscles. Rehabilitative and preventative, Pilates will create
long, flat, hard muscles and a sculpted body. It will also improve flexibility,
correct imbalances, enhance posture, stimulate circulation and increase
mental awareness. This is an excellent complement to any exercise regimen
for people of all ages and fitness levels. Bring a flat mat and wear comfortable
clothing.
