Contrology
Mind, body, and spirit.
Pilates is a system designed to strengthen, stabilize, stretch, and improve mobility and alignment of the body. The apparatus was built by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century to aid in teaching and assisting the client to experience and feel the work. Joseph Pilates called his method “Contrology” and believed the client needed to focus the “mind, body, and spirit” to fully benefit from the exercises. Pilates will offer many tools to help find ultimate control over your movements and correct poor posture habits.
Strengthen
Build deep, balanced strength from the center outward.
Stabilize
Support the spine and joints through every movement.
Stretch
Lengthen muscles and restore ease and range of motion.
Align
Retrain posture so good habits carry into daily life.
