This class is an introduction to the principles of Pilates mat work based on the work of Joseph Pilates. The focus will be on learning, understanding, and practicing the foundations that make Pilates a unique approach to better posture, balance, core strengthening and spinal lengthening. We will start at a slow pace and gradually increase the level of intensity from week to week. This class is back safe and modifications are offered as needed. No prior experience is necessary.
