All of these counteract the negative effects of our modern lifestyle (too much sitting and looking at screens!) and often result in a dramatic reduction in pain.

Kristie is an amazing instructor. She is very detail oriented and great at explaining what we are doing and what the exercises are for (improving alignment/posture, what imbalance is being corrected, etc.).
Kristie keeps me busy the entire session to maximize what I get out of my time with her, without pushing too much. At the same time, she is able to help me challenge myself just beyond my comfort zone each session to help me improve.
Pilates utilizes both mat and equipment-based exercises. Pilates' equipment, such as the reformer, helps students develop strength, flexibility, and coordination, enabling complete body control.
Tools of Pilates
Pilates was created by Joseph Pilates, a German exercise innovator. He believed that "physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness." His method, which he originally called Contrology, is a system of movement and therapeutic exercise designed to produce physical fitness.
Origins of Pilates
Pilates has a clear objective: to create a "uniformly developed body"—one capable of meeting all life's demands. Through deep and full breaths, a flexible and decompressed spine and joints, and robust circulation, Pilates unifies the body, mind, and spirit.
