What Is Pilates?

The Pilates Method of body conditioning is a unique system of stretching and core strengthening exercises for a complete body workout. The Method strives to teach clients how to make mind-body connections in order to create a strong and streamlined form. Clients learn to move their bodies from the core, while increasing flexibility and toning muscle. Concentration is the key element to connecting your mind and body. Add this to muscle control, precision and flow of movement and breath and you have the ingredients that make up Pilates.
