Hollywood stars swear by it! Dancers don't start their days without it! What is this exercise program that you actually look forward to, which engages you, that leaves you refreshed and alert? It's Pilates (pronounced pil-LAH-teez). 

Developed in the 1920's by the legendary physical trainer, Joseph H. Pilates, the Pilates method is a set of principles and movements designed to dramatically improve strength, flexibility, posture and coordination. Pilates combines awareness of the spine, proper breathing, strength and flexibility training to achieve slimmer, longer, stronger muscles without building bulk.

Pilates is a comprehensive exercise routine lasting approximately one hour. An instructor will take you through a series of exercises and movements with an emphasis on your core muscles - abdomen, back and buttocks. At times you will have to work slowly so that you can feel what you're doing. Getting in touch and feeling the muscle or joint you're exercising is very important. The movements are unlike anything you've done before, and the results can be astonishing.

In addition to private and semi-private sessions Pilates Moves also offers Pre & Post Pregnancy Circuits, Studio Circuit Classes, Power Pilates, Group Allegro Reformer Classes, Small Apparatus Classes, Pilates on the Ball Classes, Matwork Classes & Pilates Evolution Classes.
