Pilates has been embraced by doctors, physical therapists, and athletes for its comprehensive approach to health and fitness.

Pilates is one of the safest forms of exercise today, appropriate for almost everyone.

Traditional methods of training and developing the body tend to produce short, bulky muscles — precisely the type of musculature most prone to injury.

A Pilates session stabilizes the pelvis and shoulder girdle, as well as stretching and strengthening the entire body. Pilates elongates the spine, increasing the elasticity of muscles and the flexibility of joints. This balance between strength and flexibility drastically reduces the potential for future injury.


Results

Pilates is the ultimate mind/body exercise to tone, streamline, and realign your body.

Pilates can help you regain efficient patterns of motion — a great benefit to those recovering from injury, professional athletes and performers, or anyone seeking good posture and optimal health.

"Pilates has a long list of benefits including improved body mechanics, balance, coordination, strength and flexibility."

Dr. Cedric X. Bryant
Chief exercise physiologist for the American Council on Exercise
