The Method

The Method

Pilates works by building strength from the inside out, rebalancing the body and bringing it into good alignment by targeting the deep postural muscles.  The body is worked from head to foot with the spine taken through all its potential planes of movement developing functional control, flexibility and increased mental awareness to create a symmetrical, powerful and centred body.

Other positive benefits of Pilates include:

  • A focus on strengthening the core abdominals
  • Helps in the prevention and management of low back pain
  • Increased stamina, coordination and strength
  • Minimises injury risk and develops the transfer of power through the kinetic chain (a key factor in sports performance)
  • Improved circulation and breathing
  • Relieves stress and boosts energy
  • Sense of wellbeing and vitality
