Benefits of Pilates for Mind and Body Wellness 💪

Pilates is a revolutionary exercise system that strengthens your core while improving flexibility, posture, and overall body awareness. Developed by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century, this method has become a cornerstone of fitness throughout New Zealand.

Our Pilates classes at Glenfield are designed for participants with reasonable to good mobility (Levels 2 and 3), making them perfect for:

• Those looking to enhance their core strength and stability
• Participants wanting to improve posture and reduce back pain
• Fitness enthusiasts aiming to complement their existing workout routine
• Anyone seeking a mind-body connection through controlled movement

Each session incorporates the eight fundamental Pilates principles that make this practice so effective:

• Concentration: Bringing full attention to each movement
• Breath: Coordinating breathing with movement for maximum benefit
• Centring: Working from the core, or "powerhouse"
• Control: Moving with precision rather than momentum
• Precision: Focusing on alignment and form
• Movement isolation: Targeting specific muscle groups
• Routine: Building a consistent practice for ongoing results
