 Pilates exercise on the Reformer. Pilates Instructor, Bernadette, teaches correct technique. |
What is PILATES?
- Series of exercises that develops the muscles that stabilize, align, and move the CORE (trunk) of the body
- Originally invented by Joseph Pilates to help WW I POW’s regain strength and mobility
- Emphasis is placed on the CORE. The Core workout covers the ABS, gluts, hamstrings and muscles of the back and pelvic area
- STOTT PILATES® was refined to include ideas from exercise physiology, sports medicine, and physical therapy
- Gentle on the joints. Eliminates “Pounding” on the knees, spine and hips
- Similar to Yoga poses with emphasis on breathing and elongating muscles, but more fluid and faster-paced than some forms of Yoga. Both develop the “mind-body’ connection.
-
Instructor cues the breathing and movement and ensures proper postural alignment and motion
- “Prep” exercises and modifications build up to the “full” exercise
- Can be done on a MAT or on equipment such as the REFORMER, CADILLAC or V2MAX
- Small equipment - weights, bands, and Fitness Circles can be added to the workouts
- Private sessions include Postural Analysis
Is Pilates Exercise for YOU?
- Every exercise program is not suitable for every person. But in general, regardless of your age, weight, shape or level of fitness, you can do Pilates!
- As with any exercise routine, a doctor should be consulted before undertaking it.
- Bernadette can make individual modifications (changes in how the exercise is performed) for physical limitations
- Repertoire is broken down into Essential, Intermediate and Advanced exercises
- Simplification of movements (Preparatory or “Preps”) are practiced, in order to achieve the final exercise
-
Bernadette uses small equipment, toning balls, resistance circle, & stretch bands to assist in recruiting muscles, or to challenge the client
