Pilates involves the co-ordination of deep postural and stability muscles – combined with breathing, arm and leg movements, postural adaptations, and flexibility. Evidence suggests Pilates can reduce pain and improve physical function, movement, and wellbeing.

 

Pilates connects your breathing to the exercise, allowing influx of oxygen to complete each movement better. Since you are concentrating on breathing deeply, mind can benefit from mindfulness, relaxation, and stress reduction during and after the class. Over time, your mind is trained to stay more focused not only while working out, but also in your everyday life.
