The Pilates method is the art of controlled movements. Pilates puts emphasis on alignment, breathing, developing a strong core and improving balance. Everyone is encouraged to exercise at their own pace to get the best out of their practice.

If practiced with consistency, Pilates improves flexibility, builds strength and will help you to achieve a healthy, balanced and happy life. Read more about the principles of Pilates.
