Pilates is great for rehabilitation, injury prevention, focusing on improving posture, and increasing muscle function. The aim is to lengthen tight muscles that pull the body out of ideal posture and to strengthen the muscles that hold the body in good posture. Pilates V studio stands for keeping Joseph Pilates’ original method and philosophy alive. All our classes and programs aim to reflect the
goals and intentions of Joe and Clara Pilates’. The genius of the method is in the order of the mat and reformer flows. He takes you on the perfect progression to get the most out of your body during and post workout. It reveals and corrects the imbalances of body movement patterns and increases body awareness. In his book Return to Life through Contrology, Joseph Pilates presents his method as the art of controlled movements, which should look and feel like a workout (not a therapy) when properly manifested. If practiced with consistency, Pilates improves flexibility, builds strength and develops control and endurance in the entire body. It puts emphasis on alignment, breathing, developing a strong core, and improving coordination and balance. Pilates' system allows for different exercises to be modified in range of difficulty from beginner to advanced. At Pilates V we think of our practice as corrective exercise or conditioning to improve body function, relieve pain and increase vitality. In 2011 while muscle imbalance and chronic pain curtailed her activities, Vannesa Storie discovered Pilates, which relieved her pain, and improved her connection to her body. Vannesa fell in love with this intelligent and challenging form of body conditioning, so she began to learn and train as much as she could. Since delving into Pilates and completing teacher training, Vannesa has had the pleasure of attending advanced training workshops with Authentic Pilates Masters including Kathi Ross-Nash, Mari Winsor, Jay Grimes, Siri Galliano, along with additional instruction from Moses Urbano, Chris Robinson, Greg Norris. As a Pilates instructor she has the rare ability to recognize muscle imbalances and correct body movement patterns to increase strength, mobility, alignment and control.
Vannesa excels in assisting clients who are recovering from injury or need assistance as their bodies change with age. Vannesa is always craving a deeper understanding of the method and loves learning as much as she loves teaching. Vannesa’s jovial lifestyle translates and you will never leave her class without a smile on your face
