Classical Pilates.
Classical Pilates exercises use corrective resistances on spring-loaded equipment and simple active stretches performed on mats. The exercises are performed with fluidity, using minimal repetition and minimal effort to yield improvements in centering, concentration, control, precision, breath, and flow.
The Benefits.
Classical Pilates works to bring the whole body into union through movement. Classical Pilates is best performed, at least two-to-three times per week, both at home and under well-certified instruction. After repeated practice it connects to you:
Your breath starts coordinating with your postural muscles
Your movement becomes controlled and flowing
You actively stretch and strengthen muscle, breaking down fascia
You create new neural pathways
You stimulate the lymphatic system
Doing Classical Pilates develops muscular endurance which means dancers can practice more, musicians can play longer, and athletes can move better. Everyone who practices Classical Pilates may experience relief in the symptoms caused by stress, trauma, accident, injury, and overuse.
