NewsLady Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Pilates- a Great Form of Exercise for your Body and Mind coordinating the Total You. Simply put- Pilates is the Best. It's strengthening, stretching, improves balance and coordination, teaches body awareness for good posture, strengthens the core promoting back and spinal health, and is anatomically symmetrical and precise. There's nothing weird or off the wall about the sequences which compose it, as they incorporate natural body movement- using concentration and the body as its own machine- to develop muscular strength and flexibility. Pilates works toward the creation of greater fluidity and ease of motion, building a sense of overall well-being. ONGOING CLASS SCHEDULE- Start Anytime!
