Personal Pilates

Personal Pilates www.personal-pilates.net What is Pilates? In childhood, with rare exceptions, we all enjoy the benefits of natural and normal physical development.

Personal Pilates is a private Studio offering Pilates lessons on Mat, Reformer, Cadillac, and Chair and Personal Pilates offers private and semi-private session in Redcord, a suspension training system. According to Joseph Pilates, in his 1945 book "Pilates' Return to Life through Contrology", it is "complete coordination of body, mind and spirit." He continues to explain that Pilates (the method

is named for the man), "develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind, and elevates the spirit. However, as we mature, we find ourselves living in bodies not always complimentary to our ego. Our bodies are slumped, our shoulders are stooped, our eyes are hollow, our muscles are flabby, and our vitality is extremely lowered, if not vanished. This is but the natural result of not having uniformly developed all the muscles of our spine, trunk, arms and legs in the course of pursuing our daily labors and office activities." In short, Pilates focuses on building a healthy, injury-free body by encouraging controlled and concentrated movement. It centers the body with breathing awareness while maintaining dynamic spiral stabilization. Pilates is a full body-conditioning program comprised of a series of approximately 500 designed movements preformed on a mat and with specific apparatus. Pilates utilizes equipment with spring resistance that simulated normal muscle physiology, integrating muscle synergies. Pilates improves strength, flexibility, balance, control and muscular symmetry. The rhythmic exercises promote elongated and toned muscles, and are noted for developing abdomen, lower back and buttocks strength, promoting a strong body core. What is Redcord? Redcord is a suspension training system that provides controlled instability to challenge the body safely and effectively. Redcord users achieve optimal performance by activating the right muscle in the right amount at the right time. Exercises are easily modified for people of all ages and fitness levels.
