I recently submitted a short article regarding Pilates to the Kanawha County Women's Magazine. I thought I would share it here as well. Enjoy and stayCENTERED!! WHAT IS PILATES? Pilates is an exercise system developed by Joseph Pilates to align the spine, create a balanced musculature (by strengthening the muscles that are weak and creating flexibility in those that are tight) and improve overall health. Through breath, one engages the mind and body to perform exercises with attention to proper form and correct movement patterns. |
