PILATES:
Pilates is a well-controlled, physical conditioning program for the whole body to help promote balanced fitness and body awareness. The exercise works on strength, flexibility, coordination and posture, which enhances balance, overall body control and helps to prevent as well as recover from injuries.

The training course will include lessons on the fundamentals of pilates, breathing and understanding core control, Pilates mat floor exercises and pilates using the Reformer Bed.

Pilates mat floor exercises will focus on the core muscles to improve body alignment and posture, muscle tone, strength and flexibility.

Exercises using the Reformer Bed, a central piece of apparatus of the pilates family, combined with choreography, music, rhythm and body movement will train the body to move more dynamically. Participants will learn core control, correct breathing and proper body alignment. The Reformer Bed is a versatile equipment that will allow for continued progression of pilates in terms of variation and difficulty.
