Pilates

​

Pilates is a method of exercise used to develop or rehabilitate core muscles. Joseph Pilates created this method during the 1920's as a way for people to gain body awareness and achieve proper postural alignment.  Many benefits of Pilates include injury prevention, enhanced athletic performance, and increased self-confidence.

 

Yoga

​

Yoga transforms the body and mind by using asanas (yogic poses), and breathing techniques.  Asanas help practitioners stay present and connect to their true state of being.  On a basic level, students feel as though the stretching helps develop long, smooth muscle tissue, and relieves stress.

​

Reformer Yoga

​

Reformer Yoga consists of performing Yoga asanas on the Pilates Reformer using spring resistance.  Combining the best of both worlds, strength and flexibility, Yoga and Pilates compliment each other.
