Pilates

Pilates is a low-impact, inclusive form of exercise which strengthens and stabilises the body. It focuses on the core and has a focus on breathing. It offers “coordination of mind, body and spirit” and its six key principles encompass: control; concentration; powerhouse (core) centring; breathing; precision and flow.
