PILATES - "Get toned and supple - increasing you body's mobility and flexibility, whilst improving your Core muscles to help prevent injury and reduce back, hip, neck pain. Leaving you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated!"
Pilates called his method Contrology (from control and Greek -λογία, -logia), because he believed that his method uses the mind to control the muscles.
Pilates is a body conditioning routine that helps to not only build flexibility, but also strength, endurance, and coordination in the legs, abdominals, arms and back.
Joseph Pilates:
Who developed 'Controlology' in the 1920's as a constant form of exercise - which later became called 'PILATES'
and - with his method of controlled exercise, still looking good in his 80's!!
TIP: Spare some time, just 5 mins!!- for morning and evening stretches (our pets do!!) - using our braced core and breathing technique used in class try shoulder bridge, child's pose and clam stretches to get the mobility in your body before you start your day. Similarly repeated slowly @ night and relax into a calm sleep .. and no need for the floor, even the bed will do - no excuses - 5 mins for hours of well being - try it ... and smile :)
