Pilates Mat Class
Pilates based work is designed to strengthen the spine primarily from the pelvic neutral position versus flat back. The neutral position indicates use of 3 natural curves of the spine. Flat back indicates the crunch position.
Posture is refreshed with each visit enabling greater understanding and execution of technique. The work is modified based on individual skill, strength, ability, and energy on the day, in the moment.
As a feel good form of movement, a pilates mat class is a compliment to the reformer class or valid on its own. The mat class can replace your work in the gym, or compliment it. You will strengthen and stretch on your back, belly, side, standing, jumping, sitting, etc. You will learn where your body is weak or strong, and learn how to balance those differences while endeavoring to avoid pain. The theory of less is more is applied.
Therapeutic Pilates based work designed by a physical therapist is a meaningful and supportive movement and process combining both the Eastern and Western philosophies of life.
Wear comfy clothing that easily moves with you, giving freedom of movement. Your feet will be bare.
Pilates indicates and encourages full flexion against full extension, without hyper-extension, in alignment, with stability, without force, and with grace. The mat work is the foundation.
