What is Pilates?
It is a series of exercises developed by Joseph Pilates to create a healthy body, mind and lifestyle. The focus is on the deep, core muscles of the body; the abdominal, lower back and buttocks (known as the "powerhouse"). Whether the goal is to improve overall body conditioning, tone muscles, trim inches, stretch tight muscles or decrease stress or fatigue, Pilates is a great choice.
