PILATES CLASSES

MAT PILATES
Pilates is a class designed to promote a balanced muscular-skeletal system, resulting in improved core strength, flexibility, good posture and improved body awareness. Pilates is a series of exercises done in a certain sequence while lying on a mat, maybe with a ball, or bands. Concentration, quality and precision of movement are emphasized. This 6 week course will be offered seasonally.

PILATES BASED CORE CONDITIONING

The core is both the foundation and the center of activity.  This class will focus attention to those muscles the body uses for every movement. Pilates exercises will strengthen your abdominal muscles and your back muscles.  The result will be a body that is leaner, longer and stronger!

POWER PILATES
This is an intermediate level Pilates mat class. The core will be strengthened and flexibility increased in this challenging class. Prior Mat Pilates experience is strongly suggested.
