Pilates and relaxation: balance, core strength and injury-prevention
I’m an enthusiastic pilates and movement professional. Certified in STOTT PILATES in both reformer and matwork to advanced level, I have been teaching weekly group mat classes since 2009. I am excited to offer lots of new classes this January in Cashel; see group mat classes for information!
Why Pilates?
Breathe with awareness ~ stretch and move! Develop more flexibility and balance in muscles and skeleton to keep you in relaxed, good posture. Pilates awareness ~ along with eating natural, non-processed foods; drinking lots of water and doing regular aerobic activity (such as brisk walking) ~ will simply make you feel better.
Pilates is a low impact, but high intensity exercise that can deliver multiple benefits to your body in terms of fitness, flexibility, overall strength. With regular practice, you will experience freer and more fluid movement.
Pilates is suitable for people of all ages and all fitness levels, and because of its low impact and therapeutic nature, it is hugely popular with people rehabilitating from injuries or for those whose movement is currently restricted by years of sitting and poor posture.
