Programs for Adults

In this mind-body class, participants develop and improve true core strength, stability and control. Exercises are selected to challenge and improve mobility and stabilization through the core and the spine. We will work on improving posture, re-programming faulty movement patterns, while adding flexibility and movement efficiency.  

While taking Pilates, clients gain muscle strength, joint stability, and they improve their posture and flexibility while working hard on their core muscles. The low back regains strength and many mobility issues are resolved. 

STOTT Pilates exercises are performed on a mat using your own body weight to build core strength and lean and toned muscle. No prior Pilates experience required, beginners welcome.
