Shanghai PILATES are for EVERYBODY
Pilates is a safe and effective exercise method providing the benefits of stretching, strength, and control. A Pilates routine will keep you fit, energized, and balanced for the challenges you face in your daily life.
The ESSENCE OF PILATES is six principles that make up the foundation on which Pilates is built:
1. Breathing
2. Axial Elongation and Core Control
3. Organization of Head, Neck, and Shoulders
4. Spine Articulation
5. Alignment and Weight-bearing of the Extremities
6. Movement Integration
With Pilates you work smarter not harder, minimizing extraneous and wasted muscle activity.
Joseph Pilates used to say: – After 10 sessions you’ll notice a difference
- After 20 sessions other people will notice a difference
- After 30 sessions you’ll have a whole new body
Pilates does not only provide physical benefits. Regular workout sessions can help to release tension and decrease stress, which is a very important task in our fast-paced lifestyles.
Your Pilates training can be customized to your individual situation. Whether it is achieving peak conditioning for the sport you play, staying fit during your pregnancy, or regaining fitness after a pregnancy, your performance level and overall health will improve by practicing Pilates three times per week.
