Originally a form of rehabilitation, Pilates was developed in the early 1920s by Joseph H. Pilates. The Pilates method has evolved and been adapted over the years to reflect modern knowledge of functional bodywork.
Pilates focuses on postural muscles and systematically trains your body to build lean, toned muscles. Pilates teaches you to breathe and move with strength. The method consists of a variety of resistance and flexibility exercises specifically designed to strengthen and balance muscles as they stretch.
A more balanced body will minimize your risk of injury and will lead to a healthier, more focused mind and body.
Yoga supports a path that reaches beyond movement. It is a rich and insightful framework for self-development and an integrated approach that addresses physical, mental, emotional, and energetic needs.
Power yoga is a modified form of Ashtanga Yoga. The Asanas (positions) are practiced and modified to avoid overloading joints and overstraining the body. The flowing movement sequences are adapted to the needs of the participants and are synchronized with breath.
Through movement, energetic sequencing, breathwork, and meditation, Yoga aims to develop and maintain a healthy body and mind.
