First topic: Do you know the benefits of a Pilates Chair Class? Let me fill you in…

  1. Strength: Did we mention you get strong in this class? Put your abs to the pedal. The chair pedal, that is. This class will help you gain deep core strength and increase all-over body tone.
  2. Intelligent Movement: Engagement is the name of the Pilates game. As in: engage your mind while engaging your body (They call it mind body exercise for a reason!). The movements in the Pilates Chair class are some of the most unique of any class you’ve taken. Be prepare to engage your thoughts!
  3. Unique Balance Training: Recreational & pro athletes are in agreement about the simple fact that balance is an incredibly important aspect to any form of fitness training. The Pilates Chair class will help you strengthen your core, which enhances good balance, while also improving coordination and reducing risk of injury!
