Pilates is a mind-body exercise programme which focuses on developing a strong centre (core), increasing mobility and range of motion along with improving posture and coordination.
The main principle behind Pilates is that of ‘stabilising before mobilising.’ This refers to strengthening the stabilising muscles, for example the deep abdominal muscles, which support the organs of the abdominal cavity as well as the lower spine, whilst increasing mobility and strength in the limbs (arms and legs).
Muscles are worked both in their contracted and lengthened state, reducing the ‘bulking’ effect which is so often the result of traditional exercise.
