| PILATES |
Pilates is an exercise system which seeks to bring balance, strength and agility to the body to achieve optimal function.
Unlike any other form of resistance training, Pilates takes you through unique movement patterns, challenging co-ordination, control and body awareness and strengthening while elongating muscles. For years, the secret of professional dancers, this technique has become widely accepted as a fantastic way to get and stay in shape!
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PILATES?

• Improves postural problems
• Increases core strength, stability & peripheral mobility
• Injury prevention
• Functional fitness, ease of movement

PILATES EQUIPMENT: 6 Reformers, 1 Cadillac, 1 Wunda Chair, Ladder Barrel, Arc Barrel, Spine Corrector and Spine Supporter.
IN-CLUB TRAINING: One-on-One Pilates training is a fantastic way to ensure you are doing the specific moves correctly and getting the most out of your time. Semi-private and small group instruction is also available.
