WHAT IS PILATES?
Pilates is a physical fitness workout developed by Joseph Pilates to help build flexibility, strength, and endurance. Joseph Pilates believed the body and mind are interrelated, Pilates exercise routine was designed to strengthen both.
Pilates develops controlled movement from a strong core to improve muscle tone, coordination, balance, posture, and graceful movement.
MAT PILATES
The exercises in mat Pilates focus on strengthening the muscles of the hips, back, abdominals, and glutes or what is known in Pilates as the powerhouse. The exercises look simple but require stabilization of the torso and focused effort to keep the abdominals contracted and working throughout the exercises.
Classes are taken at my home studio in Jerusalem or in the comfort of the clients home.
