About Pilates:

Pilates first appeared in the early 1900’s after being created by Joseph Pilates as an aid in the healing of dancers injuries. It soon became clear, nevertheless, that this activity would be helpful to the average individual. We all have a specific way that we stand, walk, move, and sit at our desks which can overwork our muscles this can lead to imbalances that can be balanced with Pilates.

The Pilates method emphasizes the use of the muscles in the low back and belly, precise movement patterns, and regulated breathing. The combination of these exercises emphasize core strength rather than muscle size. Each of these are emphasized by a Live Fit certified instructor.  

Pilates Benefits:

Pilates is therapeutic and preventative because it isolates, calms, and strengthens muscular areas using control and breathing. Additionally, it helps strengthen your posture and alignment, resulting in a straighter, more powerful gait. 

Pilates helps you feel better which increases wellbeing, much like yoga. Your core gets stronger, which reduces back pain brought on by weak, tight, or misaligned muscles. Major advantages can result from better posture building these muscles can help avoid hunching and compressing your lower back which can make it more difficult to breathe and digest food.
