PILATES
Pilates targets the deep postural muscles, building strength from the inside out, rebalancing the body and bringing it into correct alignment. It helps to reshape your body, which will become longer, leaner and more toned. It will also improve your posture, achieving the perfect balance between strength and flexibility, and is a great way to relieve unwanted stress and tension. Perfect for athletes looking to enhance their performance and avoid the risk of injury, it is also ideal for first-time exercisers. Its slow, controlled approach means that it gives much longer term results. It is especially recommended by medical specialists for those with back problems.
The Body Control Pilates Method
Body Control Pilates is based on the work of Joseph Pilates (1880-1967), who created a series of exercises that built strength without adding bulk and balanced that strength with flexibility.
The 'classical' Pilates exercises that he developed may take many years to perfect and may well be beyond the capability of the average person, so we break those exercises down so that our clients can enjoy the benefits of Pilates whilst working saftey and effectively as they move towards the more advanced exercises.
Whether you want to work on a one-to-one basis or in a group class the Body Control Pilates method can help you achieve your goals.
Code of Practice
Body Control Pilates teachers work to a Code of Practice that governs teaching standards and professional ethics. All teachers hold a valid insurance and CPR Certificate.
