What is Pilates?
In recent years Pilates has become the new hype in the fitness world, however,
it is anything but new. It was developed by Joseph H. Pilates during the early 1900's and has been used by dancers,
gymnasts and athletes to enhance performance and prevent injury. It is a form of exercise that develops strength,
flexibility and muscle balance. Focus on specific deep breathing patterns during each exercise aids in
stress relief and creates a feeling of well being.
The benefits of Pilates can be experienced by the new exerciser and
the elite athlete alike. At BodySmith programs are designed around each client's specific needs and goals.
