While you may be new to Pilates, Pilates is not new to the fitness scene. In fact, Pilates was developed in 1920 by fitness instructors Joseph and Clara Pilates when they opened their Body Conditioning Gym in New York City. Joseph developed many of his techniques while working to rehabilitate patients who could not walk. Since then it has continued to hold an influential space in the fitness industry attracting those looking for a way to strengthen body and mind and rehabilitate from injuries.
At Evolve NY we are offering traditional mat Pilates which may involve the use of other equipment to promote strength, stability, and flexibility. Pilates exercises develop the body through muscular effort that stems from the core, which helps to improve general fitness and overall well-being. In keeping with the tradition of Pilates, classes will incorporate the 6 Principles of Pilates:
Breath
Flow
Concentration
Centering
Control
Precision
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PILATES?
One of the great things about Pilates is that no no matter your fitness or experience level, Pilates will challenge your body. Aside from the general health benefits that participating in any regular exercise program will give you, Pilates provides many specific benefits including:
Improving your posture
Strengthening your core
Improving your flexibility
Helping to reduce aches and pains
Improving your body awareness and breath control
