Pilates (pronounced puh-lah-teeze) is a safe, effective and intelligent exercise program designed to work the body from the inside out. Strength is developed by recruiting the smaller, “whispering” muscles to stabilize the core, so that the larger, mobilizing, “shouting” muscles can be more efficiently engaged. Pilates increases flexibility, alignment, and balance, along with core strength. This helps to alleviate back pain, weakness and inflexibility. Focusing on the breath pattern, the mind-body connection will help to increase your body-awareness. Developed from the rehabilitation techniques of Joseph Pilates to correct postural alignment, and lengthen and tone the entire body, this form of exercise will benefit all ages, levels, and body types. Using floor mat and equipment exercises, KAliJo Pilates Programs are created for each individual.
