If you have been searching for an alternative to the traditional forms of exercise you have tried......you have come to the right place. Pilates can:
 

*Elongate muscles without building bulk.
*Slim problem areas, i.e., Hips, buttocks and thighs.
*Strengthen the back by building support in the abdominals.
*Increase flexibility while building strength.
*Improves posture, coordination, circulation and overall health.
*Lower risk of injury by eliminating tension and stress on joints, back, and neck
*Increase better range of motion.
*Promote relaxation and a sense of well being.
*Create an evenly conditioned body and prevent sports injury
*Learn efficient patterns of motion

In conventional workouts, weak muscles tend to get weaker and strong muscles tend to get stronger. The result is muscular imbalance - a primary cause of injury and chronic back pain. Pilates conditions the whole body, even the ankles and feet. No muscle group is over trained or under trained. Your entire musculature is evenly balanced and conditioned, helping you enjoy daily activities and sports with greater ease and less chance of injury.

Pilates exercises train several muscle groups at once in smooth, continuous movements. By developing proper technique, you can actually re-train your body to move in safer, more efficient patterns of motion - invaluable for injury recovery, sports performance, good posture and optimal health.

Need we say more......at Lead Pilates we pride ourselves on being well trained, highly responsive to our clients needs, and we LOVE what we do and your experience at our studio will prove that. We offer classes for all everyBODY.... seriously, EVERY BODY. We understand how the experiences we have had in our lives, for example, old injuries or pregnancy, can create changes in our bodies that can last a long time. We can help to make those bodies healthier; make already healthy bodies leaner, stronger; and Pilates can often be that one differentiating factor that can give an elite athlete the edge in competition.

We have a unique mix of Pilates programming in store for you: work your way through our beginner mat, then onto intermediate mat and finally advanced mat classes. Try an Essentrics class; or a TRX and REstore class; or after a long week register for a REstore and REjuvinate class.
