PRINCIPLES OF PILATES |
STOTT
PILATES® | a true balance of the body
With
an emphasis on breath, core conditioning and body
awareness, STOTT PILATES exercise is a safe way
to stretch, strengthen and streamline your body
without adding bulk or stressing joints. This
fitness regime can be performed either on a raised
mat or using specialized STOTT PILATES equipment.
Please see our complete line of STOTT PILATES
workouts.
The five basic
principels behind STOTT PILATES are an integral
part in balancing the muscles around your joints.
Specifically, STOTT PILATES focus on:
 |
Breathing |
|
Pelvic

|
Ribcage

|

STOTT PILATEES is different from resistance weight training
because it is three-dimensional. It has emphasis on
concentric and eccentric contraction for injury prevention,
it emphasizes balancing strength with flexibility, and
it leads to an improvement in posture and body awareness.
Through private personal training, STOTT PILATES is
customizable to suit your specific needs. With STOTT
PILATES, you can expect to increase flexibility, mobility,
balance and body awareness, with a decrease in back
pain and other unexplained muscle aches. If you do 2
or 3 classes week, you should see definite results in
as little as a month. This varies; of course, on the
body type you have, the amount of classes you do, whether
you participate in other physical activities and if
you have any existing injuries. But if you commit yourself
to a consistent workout schedule, you will see results.
