What is Pilates?

Pilates is an extremely effective discipline of exercise that essentially rebuilds the body from its centre; the spinal column, out to the periphery. All Pilate's movements are initiated from this central core.

Emphasis is also placed on correct bio-mechanical function in order to realign bones to their anatomically correct position and re-pattern movement.

Pilates is technique-focused and unique. It employs a range of specialized, multi-functioning equipment that uses spring resistance and unique 3-dimensional movements. 

Pilates will dramatically change the way you feel, perform and look!  To see more details about the equipment, visit The Elements page.
