How PilatesCan benefits you:
If you live in Turner or the neighbouring suburbs, why not start today. Pilates can be described as an aerobic form of exercise. But don’t let that intimidate you, these stretches are not meant to work your muscles to the point of exhaustion! It takes your body through precise ranges of motion whilst maintaining balance and concentration.
Some of the benefits include: improved flexibility, posture and lung capacity. It has also shown to increase muscle strength and tone, particularly of your abdominal muscles, lower back, hips and buttocks (the ‘core muscles’ of your body).
Rehabilitation benefits include: correct spinal and pelvic alignment, increases joint movement, easier introduction to movement after an injury, increased body awareness and prevention of musculoskeletal injuries.
Background of Pilates:
Originally starting in the 1920s, by a physical trainer named Joseph Pilates. A man of many talents and professions, but most notable was his combination of western and eastern philosophies. Studying all these disciplines allowed him enough knowledge to start his own form of exercise and body conditioning. This began as a method of rehabilitation for injured athletes and dancers to return to their professions.
His method included the use of a piece of equipment he called the ‘apparatus’. These days, the pilates reformer is the primary piece of equipment used. The movements were initially inspired by yoga, callisthenics, and ballet. Since then, many advancements have been made and this healing tool has been adapted to people of varying backgrounds in an effort to benefit everyone.
Why Choose PilatesCan?
PilatesCan boasts a studio neighbouring Turner that has classes at the forefront of Pilates and exercise science. Backed by contemporary scientific research, PilatesCan stands by the two big H’s; Healthy and Healing.
Healthy Bodies focuses on improving mobility and optimising the body to get the full enjoyment from life. Matwork is a great entry level class for people with a generally healthy condition, but those more experienced in Pilates should not shy away. There will always be a mat available for you! A typical class involves a number of exercises and stretches. These exercises are performed with strict attention to proper breathing control and abdominal muscle control. A trainer will never be far away, offering direction and guidance to you.
Equipment Pilates offers a service that builds strength and confidence in one’s body. Perfect for those that want some variation from those other studios. The general format of these exercises works with resistance. This can be utilised through weights or even equipment that works against spring-loaded resistance.
Enter Healing bodies, looking for a more personalised service geared towards your unique condition? This is for you. Whilst Pilates is great for those looking to build body confidence and flexibility, or even just have some midweek fun.
