Benefits of Pilates


Improved Posture

Do not underestimate the benefits of good posture. Poor posture can often be a bad habit that is easy to correct. Bad posture can be the first step towards widow’s hump, double chin, potbelly, and sway back and if someone is not standing straight or hunched over they can look a lot older than they actually are. Good posture can make you look younger, slimmer and can convey great self-confidence.

Improved strength

Building toned muscles create strength to work perfectly within the context of the body as a whole. As a result of the sequences using several repetitions, your body is learning to endure exercise for longer periods each time, which improves stamina and strength.

Well-toned muscles

Pilates gives the appearance of long lean muscles. Traditional workouts with weights tend to build short, bulky muscles. Pilates elongates and strengthens, improving muscle elasticity and joint mobility.

Strengthens the core and promotes a strong and healthy back

The core muscles of the body are the deep muscles of the back, abdomen, and pelvic floor. These are the muscles we rely on to support our backs, give great posture, and efficient movement patterns. When the core is strong, the frame of the body is supported.

Promotes mind and body connection

Pilates connects the mind to the body, by encouraging concentration on each move and breath. Only when this is achieved will correct movement with proper alignment be possible.
