The Benefits of Pilates
The benefits are endless, but regular Pilates can:
- Improve posture, improve flexibility and correct muscular imbalances.
- Reshape the body making it leaner and more toned
- Improve core strength and stability
- Improve balance and body awareness
- Assist sports performance and recovery
- Boost mood and improve cognitive function
Many doctors and medical professionals recommend Pilates to aid recovery and rehabilitation from injury or illness.
Just three months after starting Pilates from scratch with Lisa (both in group classes and in private sessions) I went on an extended skiing trip to Italy. I was amazed with the improvements I gained from doing Pilates. I felt that my core muscles were so much stronger, giving me better balance and allowing me to ski faster and better ‘with control’ at all times! Another noticeable benefit was an improvement in my mobility and flexibility – I could bend and stretch much more freely.
I ran one and a half miles today and it didn’t jolt or jar my back‘. That’s all down to Pilates. Thank you and long may it continue….
I have been attending Lisa’s Pilates for over a year now. To my surprise there were people with different levels of fitness, all age groups and different shapes and sizes. I am in my 60’s and have had a hip replacement due to arthritis. Very soon I realised that Lisa has a passion for Pilates that is evident in all of her classes. BUT (and the “proof of the pudding”) is that there is a improvement in my POSTURE, WALKING , MUSCLE TONE and STRENGTH. Pilates suits everyone no matter what their age. I am now as passionate as Lisa about Pilates and would recommend her classes. I would go every day if I could. The improvements are amazing.
