Pilates can enhance one's life. It builds body awareness, strength, conditioning, and flexibility. It teaches the body to function efficiently and effortlessly. It is a commitment and not a quick fix, but given time the results will be everlasting.
As a former dancer, I can say that there is a tremendous parallel between ballet and Pilates — in terms of nurturing the mind/body connection, the importance of breath, and the benefits of a strong center. I bring a lifetime of this with me into every session!
