3 BEST ABS

It's probably futile to expect the flat tum in a couple of weeks, but let's me a little optimistic anyway.  Everyone wants that! These 3 Pilates exercises will get you there. Do them 3 or 4 times a week. Eat less rich starchy food, drink less wine (boo hoo!!), and you’ll look great in no time.

My Pilates Exercises: FOR SENIORS

This photo is Joseph Pilates holding a class when he was 80!  Pilates is wonderful for balance and posture, as it strengthens core muscles including pelvic floor and is frequently used for rehabilitation after injury. Your age is no barrier and pilates is regularly enjoyed in nursing homes. Our oldest student is 80!

BACK PROBLEMS

Back pain is extremely prevalent worldwide. After clearance from your health practitioner, start our Pilates back exercises & stretches. Your problem may simply be tight muscles (which we can certainly help with) or it may be a much more complex injury involving deterioration of the spine.

BALANCE & POSTURE

Balance is a huge issue as we age.  Don't be one who "has a fall",  but some who has a strong sense of balance.

Doing posture & balance exercises is an important part of any pilates routine, in fact, it's the core of it. It's difficult to say here, just which muscles you need to strengthen, but if you do the Posture Check-up to the right, you will have a clearer idea yourself. You can then follow links to those exercises or stretches, whichever the case may be.

PELVIC FLOOR EXERCISES

This exercise is under-rated but is essential not only for core strength, but also during pregnancy, after childbirth, athletic incontinence, social confidence, and many more reasons. You cannot afford not to do these exercises – even in your 30’s.

RESISTANCE BAND EXERCISES

This simple little bit of rubber is a fantastic inexpensive piece of equipment for you to use at home. A Pilates resistance workout is not like lifting weights, but it is weight bearing exercise – and extremely effective. The bands are available in different strengths, so you can increase resistance as you gain strength. Here are some Pilates exercises to get you going.

BENEFITS of PILATES

EVERYONE BENEFITS!!!The benfits of Pilates for both body and mind are immeasurable. Our body benefits with strengthening and stretching exercises. Our mind with clarity and mental strength. The mind body connection is crucial. As Joseph Pilates said -"It’is the mind that builds the body". Pilates will lengthen & tone muscle rather than bulk up. You'll be strong, flexible and curvy rather than bulky.

PILATES BALL EXERCISES

The ball offers such as enormous range of both strength exercises as well as the most fantastic stretches. Pilates Balls are available in 3 sizes, but I have found that 65cm is perfect for most people.
