WelcomeWith over 11 million people practicing it in the United States, Pilates’ popularity cannot be denied. Its practice among a wide variety of athletes, from gymnasts to runners, is a testament to the flexibility of Pilates to adapt to those who use it. Regardless of body type or current level of physical activity, Pilates is an ideal exercise. Pilates, invented by Joseph Pilates, emphasizes controlled breathing and precise movements. This favoring of quality over quantity increases concentration and lowers the chance of injury. It works the core muscles of the abdomen and lower back, aiding in weight loss, posture and flexibility. The focus on exact movements and balance, instead of high-impact exercises, means that Pilates is a fitness system that is easy for all to pick up. Whether you are a professional athlete looking for a routine with rehabilitative properties, or just looking for a fitness program with low impact, Pilates offers a full-body workout that can be easily worked into your lifestyle.
