Why would you do Pilates?

Core strength and more. Getting every muscle in the body working as it is designed and coordinated with other muscles.

Pilates helps you feel better. There is little repetitive motion so more interesting change of positions. Pilates targets the whole body and stimulates nervous system.

For coordination and balance. We work to retrain habitual patterns getting the body to move as it is designed.

Help with posture. Poor posture leads to pain and dysfunction.

Stabilization vs mobilization. Learn how to stabilize one muscle group while mobilizing another.

Stillpoint Pilates teaches a method of physical conditioning based on the teachings of Joseph H. Pilates. Pilates is a system of sequential and carefully performed movements, each designed to lengthen and strengthen the muscles involved. This exercise system helps to open joints and release tension, resulting in a new sense of well-being. Pilates focuses on strengthening the “core” muscles, which consist of the abdomen, lower back, and buttocks. By participating in Pilates exercises, clients can look forward to improving body-alignment, balance, coordination, and muscle tone. Finally, Pilates training can help to develop a longer, leaner physique, improve posture, and promote appropriate breathing techniques. We are a teacher training facility. We have interns observing occasionally and also have availability for intern priced training.
