A workout known for its elongating, posture-improving benefits, it’s a gentle way to ease yourself into a routine that pleasantly stimulates your whole body plus it’s perfect if you have spent too much time-crunched up at your WFH desk as it helps mollify pains and of course improve those abs and gluts.

This discipline was created by Joseph Pilates in the 1920s, as a way to strengthen himself, and this is the same approach that Michelle, Founder of MPower Pilates, likes to teach to their students as the benefits of this discipline are numerous. In the words of Joseph Pilates himself: “In 10 sessions you will feel the difference, in 20 you will see the difference and in 30 you will be on the path to having a new body.”

5 Reasons Why I Choose Pilates Near Me

Strengthen muscles: Pilates helps to improve overall muscle performance in the upper body, building ‘internal strength’ in your core so you’ll have more control and ease of movement not just during all types of exercises, but also in your daily life outside the gym. Plus it improves pelvic floor tone, as well just in case you were wondering!
Improve Blood Flow: Pilates allows more circulation of oxygen to muscles and gently remove toxins, which detoxifies the body.
To Build Flexibility and balance: Yes, the moves you do in this Pilates near me class at MPower helps lengthen them too which means you’ll be touching your toes in no time.
To have Leaner muscles: This discipline helps to tone the whole body, creating lean muscle mass.
To promote deep breathing techniques: I love a good pilates near me that helps to use oxygen more efficiently by training you to breathe more focus.

Am I too old?

Pilates is not a very aggressive exercise (which doesn’t mean intense) and without risk of injury, anyone can enjoy the benefits of this instruction, from the youngest to the elderly. Thanks to its different intensity levels (that MPower makes sure to have at its classes), it can be adapted from people who never have done a workout in its life to athletes. It is also perfect for treating injuries and preventing them, as well as complementing other activities such as running.

Myths about Pilates:

It is not an intense exercise

Pilates is often called a physically easygoing activity, as the movements are smooth and do not consist of doing many repetitions. However, the truth is that I love to do pilates near me as it supports me in controlling those movements that can be as hard as those that are based on repeating the same movements over and over again.

It is only for women

Although traditionally has been associated with women, it is a beneficial exercise for both sexes. As previously mentioned this method was created by a man, and for men. At the pilates near me that I normally frequent there is plenty of diversity.

Pilates and Yoga are the same

Even though they may have some similarities, Pilates and Yoga are two different disciplines. While the Pilates method is based purely on physical conditioning, Yoga is more of a practice focused on spirituality and the connection between body and mind. However, they indeed have some similarities, such as breathing control or increased flexibility and balance.
