Pilates is frequently used at the studio. This technique is versatile, fun and gives immediate results to your body-mind. Some major tenants are abdominal stabilization, to protect the back and make the torso strong, spinal sequencing--being able to move your spine in sequence--bone by bone(for alignment strength) and breathing. Being able to coordinate the breathing with the movements is a crucial universal and uniting principle for creating fluid and balanced motion.
