Pilates develops core stability and corrects postural alignment through strength training. By aligning body and mind, through breath and focus, we work through a total body workout that can alleviate minor back issues, balance muscle imbalances, stabilize joints, stimulate endocrine systems and help you achieve better health and fitness.
DJAZZEX - the pilates studio - offers pilates classes in various formats:
What to Wear?
Wear comfortable clothing that can stretch and is good for a workout. Clean socks are required for the equipment classes. There are some mats available for matwork.
Why Pilates?
Pilates offers a wonderful tool for everyone to improve strength, flexibility and muscle balance. Dancers can improve their technique and the general population can stay youthful and agile. Developed in the 1940s as the brain child of Joseph Pilates, the Pilates method today has grown to huge popularity as more and more people realize and experience first hand the benefits. Joseph's work has had a revolutionary impact on the exercise world with many forms of exercise now incorporating the principles first taught by Mr Pilates himself. Scientist also continue to prove that the basic principles do work in helping to achieve spinal stability. But Pilates is much more than the matwork classes that many have grown to love at the local gym, or for rehabilitation. Equipment known as the Reformer, Wunda Chair, Cadillac, Wall Tower, Foot Corrector, Spine Corrector and Ped-a-pole, invented by Joseph, enable the trained instructor to be VERY specific in their exercise selection. The use of these tools enable the Instructor to see the imbalances in the body and to correct muscle recruitment so that everyday tasks become easier, and dance students can ultimately "FLY" with better range in their joints and better control of those ranges. It also enables people with a history of injury to correct protective muscle recruitment habits so that they can return to a normal healthy life. It enables the healthy client to find new levels of energy, strength and stamina in their everyday activities.Nothing changes if nothing changes!
