About Pilates
Pilates is a series of exercises developed more than 70 years ago by Joseph H. Pilates. These exercises can be done on a mat where you create your own resistance. They can also be done on a Pilates apparatus using spring resistance. All of these exercises will strengthen the core muscles of your body’s center (abdominals and postural muscles), lengthen your spine, build muscle tone, and enhance your flexibility. In addition, we join Joseph Pilates in developing mind-body awareness such that you will move with ease.

“In ten sessions, you will feel a difference;
In twenty sessions, you will see a difference,
and in thirty sessions, you will have
an entirely new mind/body awareness.”
-- Joseph Pilates, inventor of the
