What is Pilates?
Description:
- A non-impact system of exercise that focuses on the deep muscles of the abdomen and spine
- Strengthens and tightens the abdominal muscles while protecting your lower back, aiding in injury prevention and spinal health.
- Lengthens muscles as they are strengthened, resulting in long, lean STRONG but FLEXIBLE muscles without the bulk
- Improves alignment without gravity, thus balancing muscles and improving posture
- The fluid movements coupled with the breath are designed to reduce stress and tension, leaving you refreshed and not exhausted.
- The custom-designed workouts are safe, versatile and effective for all ages and fitness levels.
History:
The teachings of J.H. Pilates have been around since the 1920's and were first enjoyed by dance greats such as George Balanchine and Martha Graham. Now, athletes from the San Francisco 49ers to the Cleveland Indians to professional hockey teams are discovering and reaping the benefits.
Benefits:
Whether you're an elite athlete or a pure beginner, you can benefit. The secret is non-impact resistance, which eliminates stress on your joints, making Pilates safe, versatile, and effective for all ages and fitness levels.
Simultaneously strengthened and lengthened, your muscles become longer and leaner, acquiring optimal strength and flexibility. The result is a body that is upright, balanced, and agile, free of old tensions and ready to take on new endeavors.
- Pilates focuses on alignment control; GYROTONIC® works on “releasing” and exploring the limits within a controlled range
- Pilates is more 2 dimensional (think lines); GYROTONIC® is more three dimensional (think arcs & circles).
- Pilates requires more fine tuned control; GYROTONIC® requires more control through a larger range of motion.
- Here are some real life examples: Pilates would strengthen the PURE rotation of the golf swing to protect the spinal column and lumbar spine and GYROTONIC® focuses on the larger range of motion necessary for a successful and powerful golf swing.
- Dancers and athletes can benefit from both Pilates for alignment and GYROTONIC® for increasing range of motion. Activities involving broad movements and rotation over a larger range would especially benefit from GYROTONIC®.
