Over a span of 60 years, Joseph Pilates created a movement and strength-training system designed to evenly develop all muscle groups of the body to improve flexibility, stamina, balance, and ultimately relieve chronic pain.

Utilizing the specialized spring-loaded equipment he invented, Pilates provides resistance for muscle strengthening while balancing muscular force at the joints. This promotes flexibility through effective joint range of motion and proper musculoskeletal alignment.

The six principles of Pilates - control, breath, flow of movement, precision, centering, and stability - are woven into every exercise of the Classical Pilates Method. This approach is highly effective for nurturing a strong mind-body connection which not only supports uniform muscular development, but also calms the nervous system to help alleviate anxiety and depression.
