Pilates Sessions

Denise is trained by the prestigious Body Arts & Sciences (BASI).

Her Pilates focused sessions ncorporate the use of mat, reformer, and tower apparatus.

Pilates exercise dramatically transforms the way your body looks, feels and performs. It builds strength and develops a toned body and a flat abdomen.

Pilates teaches body awareness, good posture and easy, graceful movement. It improves flexibility, agility and economy of motion. It can even help alleviate back pain.

Professional dancers have used Pilates for decades. Top athletes use it for strength, flexibility, and injury prevention.

The Pilates method was developed from the rehabilitation techniques of Joseph Pilates and is a safe, sensible exercise system using a floor mat or equipment, that will help you look and feel your very best. No matter your age or condition, it will work for you.

Pilates develops a strong "core" or center of the body. The core consists of the deep abdominal muscles, and the muscles closest to the spine. The exercises develop core control, integrating the trunk, pelvis and shoulder girdle.

• Increases flexibility and agility

• Develops optimal core control

• Creates flat abdominals and a strong back

• Is a refreshing mind-body workout

• Is challenging yet safe

Mat or equipment?

Pilates is most often performed on a mat or a Reformer. A Reformer is a resistance-based piece of equipment with a moving carriage that slides along a wooden or metal frame. Springs and ropes provide assistance and resistance, and exercises are performed lying down, sitting, kneeling or standing.

Many Pilates enthusiasts prefer working on Reformers, which offer more resistance and support than a mat. Others love the flexibility of mat workouts, which allow you more flexibility in where and when you work out.
