Saturday from 8:15-9:00 AM we will now be offering a Mat Pilates class. New to Pilates? Let us introduce you. Pilates is an exercise modality that involves a collection of low-impact exercises that coordinate movement and breath. The focus is on building strength and mobility, improving postural alignment, and strengthening core stabilizing muscles.
Mat Pilates provides a great introduction to popular Pilates movements and serves members from beginners to advanced. Our classes use body weight, light dumbbells, resistance bands, and/or other props to challenge or assist your movements. Mat Pilates exercises improve core control, strength, and stamina. Popular exercises include: hundreds, a variation on the common crunch where you do 100 pulses; leg circles, which challenge core stability; planks and side planks; plus single and double leg stretches. Come give it a try!
