Pilates is a body-conditioning method that targets the deep postural muscles. At a Pilates class, you work on building strength from the inside out, rebalancing the body and bringing it into correct alignment, improving your posture and achieving the perfect balance between strength and flexibility.

Pilates classes can help to reshape the body, which will become longer, leaner and more toned, and it is a great way to relieve stress and tension. Its slow, controlled approach means that it is suitable for first-time exercisers and gives longer-term results. As with any exercise, you should first consult with a doctor if you have issues with pain or body injury. However, it is known that Pilates classes can help people with specific back problems.
