What is Pilates?

Pilates is a system of low impact exercises which enhance each persons physical and mental health once practiced regularly.  Pilates corrects postural misalignments in the body by performing specifically designed exercises using body weight as resistance and the connection of deep support muscles known as ‘’The Core/Powerhouse".
When working from the inside out, the movement becomes graceful and deliberate. Pilates promotes torso stability, postural alignment,  more efficient movement, body awareness and overall wellbeing.

Throughout your Pilates journey you will learn 6 fundamental principles:
 Breathing
Centering
Concentration
Control
Flow
Precision  

What is Reformer Pilates?

Reformer Pilates consists of performing a combination of movements on a large piece of equipment called the Reformer. Specially designed to challenge, strengthen and support the body, the 'reformer' is so named because it was created to reform the body & movement of the participant. Consisting of a large frame, topped with a flat cushioned platform (carriage) which is attached to the frame by springs of different tension and moves as you push or pull with your legs or arms. The reformer also has long straps which can also be used to move the carriage as you push and pull the straps with your hands or feet. Through a variety of carefully designed movements, Reformer Pilates provides a full body workout. To see some videos and demonstrations go to the blog page or check out Instagram @pilates_by_bodyworks
