Pilates
The Pilates Method as it is practised today is a complete and thorough
program of mental and physical conditioning that works towards improving
posture, developing a leaner body and for core stabilisation. Many of the
small therapeutic movements can be modified for people recovering from
injuries or intensified to enhance the skill base of elite athletes and
dancers.
Attracting people of all ages and levels of fitness, the Pilates Method of
exercise has become extremely popular worldwide.
Its benefits include correcting muscular imbalances, realigning the body,
and building core strength from the inside out. Abdominal and low-back
strength is essential for everyday life, sports and recreational activities.
Learning to stabilise the core properly in all daily activities will help to
prevent injury and make for a stronger overall body.
