Testimonials
"Coming to The Somatic Center has been the perfect experience for me! I am familiar with Pilates, but generally have been in large classes.
Sarah and her group of teachers teach with passion and really are concerned with how each of their students are doing. The springs, balls, tubes and other equipment have been so helpful and have made me stronger.
The space itself is great-sunny, spacious a
PILATES
What is Pilates?
Pilates is a series of both aerobic and non-aerobic exercises that can be performed with a Mat, or on various apparatus such as The Reformer, The Cadillac, Springboard, The Ladder Barrel ect. Pilates focuses on breath, concentration, precise range of motion, control, centering, and balance. One strengthens and engages muscles that are underdeveloped and helps to release tension from muscles that are overused. Each exercise has a prescribed placement, rhythm and breathing pattern. Pilates can help to develop connection to the intrinsic muscles that support our structure. This will take away some of the compensation patterns that occur with our “global” global muscle (muscles that energize to create bigger movement). This deeper connection and focus will result in the following benefits:
- improved flexibility
- increased muscle strength and tone, particularly of your abdominal muscles, lower back, hips and buttocks (the ‘core muscles’ of your body)
- improved stabilization of your spine
- improved posture
- rehabilitation or prevention of injuries related to muscle imbalances and musculoskeletal injuries
- improved physical coordination and balance
- safe rehabilitation of joint and spinal injuries
- increased lung capacity and circulation through deep breathing
- improved concentration
- increased body awareness
- stress management and relaxation.
