Find your Core Power - Mat Class on Saturday

Do not underestimate the power of the Pilates mat series.  Performed on an exercise mat, this series of precision exercises is the foundation of Pilates. With each exercise you learn to move from the center or deep core of your body, leading with your breath and focusing on spine mobility and control.  Our highly experienced teacher skillfully adds specific stretches, posture and mobility movements to build you up to the full range of exercise.   The exercises can be challenging but can be adapted for any fitness or age level. The magic circle (pilates ring), therapy-bands (stretchy bands) and exercise balls are used to assist you to find and use your own body weight as resistance. That is the beauty of this class. There are thirty-four original exercises and endless variations which make for wide variety in classes. You will feel fully stretched, strengthened and toned at the end of the 55- minute class. To get a strong dose of Joseph Pilates’ philosophy about health, exercise and breathing and why he created this mind-body method you can find his book: Return to Life through Contrology. (Control-olgy or the study of control: ). I highly recommend it! The book contains photos of the original exercises demonstrated by the man himself at 60 years old.
