PILATES - LOOK GOOD, FEEL GREAT.......             

PILATES exercise will:

- make you feel fitter, stronger and more supple

- improve posture, co-ordination and balance

- create a fimer, flatter stomach and toned body

- strengthen the pelvic floor

 

   You will also:

          - have more energy and vitality

          - increase your sense of well-being and the 'feel-good factor' 

          - reduce physical stress, promoting relaxation and better sleep

 Practising Pilates exercises regularly will make movement and physical activity easier AND encourage your body to function properly and efficiently, enabling you to do more, for longer, with less effort.   

Strengthening the muscles that support the spine and increasing spinal flexibility will help:     

                  - prevent back problems

                  - release tight back muscles

                  - prevent/treat back pain

 People of all levels of fitness from complete beginners to advanced exercisers can benefit from Pilates and it is suitable for young and old alike.

The focus is on improving strength and relaxation through controlled flowing movements.

It is a slower, precise way of working and, practiced correctly with professional guidance, is unlikely to cause injury.
