Pilates
is one of my favorite techniques, since my time at university, I
have been practicing on a daily basis.
It incorporates many different and important benefits for health:
increases lung capacity, benefits the circulation, strengthens the
back and the abdomen, gives flexible muscles, promotes mental and
physical coordination, helps natural posture, bone density and improves
joint health.
On the whole, pilates increases body awareness, bringing back natural
balance.
In this class, I work with very smooth music, so there's a calm
ambiance in the place, inviting students to take a moment and pay
attention to their body.
I believe we work on three levels: emotional, physical and spiritual.
In all my sessions I incorporate all of these: how one feels, how
one expresses, and how one moves. Above all,
believe you can do it.
Coming from a ballet, yoga and tai chi background, pilates has
helped me to combine the best of these techniques.
