Pilates

Do you want to strengthen your abdominal muscles, to improve your posture and avoid or relieve back muscle pain?

Learning Pilates exercises is safe and maximizes the well-being of people from all walks of life, from the recently injured to experienced athletes. Exercises are practised on the floor, paying particular attention to breathing and focusing on deep abdominal work, strengthening stabilizing muscles and joint mobility.

For intermediate level: have been practicing Pilates regularly for over a year and have demonstrated mastery of the basic exercises*.

*The instructor reserves the right to refuse any participant she deems unsuitable for the intermediate level.
