Why Pilates?
If you have never tried pilates before, you might be wondering what it is and why pilates is beneficial to you.
What is pilates?
Why should I do pilates?
Develop a strong core
The exercises involved in pilates allow you to develop strong “core” muscles within the centre of your body. Your core consists of the deep abdominal muscles alongside the muscles that are located closest to your spine. You can achieve control of the core by integrating the pelvis, trunk and shoulder girdle.
Gain lean muscles and increase flexibility
Traditional workouts tend to be weight bearing and build bulky, short muscles which are more prone to injury. Pilates, on the other hand, strengthens and elongates your muscles which improves the elasticity and overall joint mobility. This reduces your risk of injury.
