Pilates (pronounced pee-lah-tees) is a mix of yoga, the Alexander technique and gentle body conditioning exercises. Pilates which is one of the most popular exercises trends focuses on abdominal work, postural exercises and breathing using the unique Pilates technique ensuring amazing results. Because of the very gentle and precise approach to exercise, Pilates is being recommended by physiotherapists and GPS to help patients strengthen backs, improve their posture and work on the deep abdominal muscles. The response to Pilates in the West End has been amazing. It’s such a relaxing and calming way to exercise deep muscles and the benefits of doing Pilates regularly are numerous. Anyone from teenagers to the elderly can do this form of exercise. I have teenagers exercising alongside grandmothers as everyone works to their own capability. Throughout the session I am constantly checking that the students technique is correct.
