Pilates at the Haven! New- Stretching & Mat Class Welcoming Beginners- Fridays 9:30- 10:45 a.m. Others Too! Do read on...


Recommended Posts

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.

Pilates on the Ball classes begin with a 20- 30 minute cardio sequence sitting- on and moving- around a stability ball, building strength, stamina, concentration, coordination, and warming up the body. This section is followed by mat and stretching techniques, using the weight of the body as its own resistance as we lie face- up or face-down upon the stability ball. Sequences utilizing a resistance band or light hand weights and a small ball follow, and are verbally led and instructed with precise attention to detail as we proceed moving- out from the inner-body.
 
Stretching and Mat Pilates is a full class of stretching and on the mat sequences, focusing on perfectly aligned posture and fluidity of movement. Total control, core strength, balance, concentration and body- awareness are continually cued, leading to the full integration of the body/mind, and a deeply- fulfilling, invigorating and harmonizing experience.
