Yoga Pilates Pilates Mat Class Description Joseph
Pilates first developed this system of stretching and strengthening exercises
in the 1920’s. The Pilates system will overall reform and bring
balance back to the body! This class will draw from the Matwork principles
of: breathing, concentration, core control, fluidity, precision, imagination,
creativity, intuition, and integration. Proper alignment and breath will
be emphasized as you flow through each exercise. Pilates will improve
your flexibility, can prevent/rehabilitate injuries, and will strengthen
and tone your entire body especially your “powerhouse”(abdominals,
buttocks, lower back, and hips). Pilates is a wonderful complement to
your yoga practice. It assists in pelvic,/back/abdominal stabilization,
core strengthening, and most importantly Pilates will retrain your muscular
system to move in the most safe, effective, and efficient way. Pilates
mat is a creative and challenging class open to all levels of Pilates
experience and all levels of physical fitness.
