Classical Pilates will support and enhance your health and well being.

Learn Concentration for Better Performance
Your awareness and ability to execute efficient and specific movement is key to success in any sport. Today, more than ever, the ability to concentrate on a given task is invaluable and related to your enjoyment of life.
We lead you through training that is focused, specific, progressive and incorporates the fullest expression of movement that you are able to achieve during your entire session. You will undoubtedly feel the benefits of awareness-based, embodied movement.
Pelvic Floor Health
Address Pelvic Stability and Function
Pilates is a good choice for anyone wanting to optimize pelvic floor function. Exercising correctly will help to maintain or improve good posture and provide trunk support. Doing “core” exercise incorrectly can increase the chances of developing diastasis recti or worsen urinary incontinence and contribute to pelvic floor dysfunction.
Weight lifting in general is a risk factor for pelvic floor dysfunction. We know that chronic strenuous loads that increase abdominal pressure repeatedly can lead to pelvic floor dysfunction. It is important that you work with someone who has experience with weight training and pelvic floor education.
Significant physical changes that new moms experience can be challenging and frustrating and it is important that you work with a professional that has expertise in breathwork and can support the mental and physical challenges that occur post baby.
