"In
ten sessions you'll feel the
difference, in twenty you'll
see the difference, and in thirty
you'll have a new body."
(Joseph Pilates)
Body
Control Pilates is based on
the work of Joseph Pilates (1880-1967),
who created a series of exercises
that built strength without
adding bulk and balanced that
strength with flexibility.
Pilates
targets the deep postural muscles,
building strength from the inside
out, rebalancing the body and
bringing it into correct alignment.
It helps to reshape your body,
which will become longer and
more toned, thereby improving
your posture and achieving the
perfect balance between strength
and flexibility. Pilates is
ideal for first-time exercisers
and indispensable for sportsmen
looking to enhance their performance
and avoid the risk of injury.
It is especially recommended
by medical specialists for people
with back problems.
The
more you do for your body now,
the less there is to go wrong
later in life. Without a strong
core and a firm balance within
the body, it cannot function
to the best of its ability.
Allow your body to work the
way it was naturally intended
to!
