About

What is Fitness Pilates? Fitness Pilates is a low-intensity group exercise class set to music. It promotes a balanced body, improved posture, a toned stomach, a strong back, and increased mobility and flexibility. It also increases strength and endurance and improves balance and coordination. How does it work? Fitness Pilates attacks the roots of bad posture by toning little-used muscle groups in the abdomen, torso, upper and lower back while incorporating a slow breathing technique to energise the body. Fitness Pilates exercises are also designed to work the muscles of the whole body (abdominals, lower back, thighs, buttocks, calves, arms, shoulders) and to gently lengthen them. The result is a properly aligned body and less risk of injury. Fitness Pilates consists of weight-bearing exercises both standing and lying down which helps to prevent osteoporosis. Who is it suitable for? Fitness Pilates is suitable for all ages, levels, and abilities.
