What is
Pilates?
Pilates was developed by Joseph Pilates, and in 1945 his βReturn to Life Through Contrologyβ book laid out a series of exercises to build strength and mobility through controlled movement and breathing.
Pilates was created for EVERYbody.
body and mind
Pilates, originally called Contrology, is a method built on these key principles – breath, flow, concentration, centering, precision and control.
These principles guide the practice and promotes mobility, strength and stability. Pilates benefits are endless; injury prevention & management, sports performance enhancement, full body strength & mobility, prehab and rehab benefits, increased body awareness, enhanced everyday functional movement and mind & body connection.
A combination of hours seated at a desk and long car journeys were making my body seize up. Lisa was able to immediately identify a body of two halves and where my challenges were. She has worked on the key areas and after a few sessions I feel 100 times better.
