  • Exercise for Energy?
    So does this sound familiar? “I know I should get up and move but I don’t feel like it.” This is all of us at one time or another. The best thing for us is to exercise the right way in the right amount. Sounds tricky huh? Many studies have shown that once a person begins to move-even just walking around the house- they will have more energy and will feel like moving more.

  • Six Moves a Day
    Do you like the idea of practicing Pilates but just can’t make time to get to class? So why not learn these six great moves you can practice daily? These challenge and tone your core. All you need is a space to lie down and stretch out, like the floor. While practicing these exercises your goal will be to not hold your breath and keep your navel drawn in during the movements. Give them a try!

  • WHOOA! Slow it Down! The Aging…
    Research shows that regular aerobic exercise can decrease our biological age by 10 years or more by improving cellular function.

  • How to Make YOU a Priority!
    We all know the why of exercise but the real struggle is the “How” to exercise. How to exercise pain free and how to “fit” exercise into our lives is the biggest struggle for some.

  • The Benefits of Pilates
    Pilates was invented in the early 20th Century by Joseph Pilates. He combined Eastern modes of exercise such as Yoga and Tai Chi with Western practices such as aerobics and weight training to create his exercise method. The emphasis of Pilates is to lengthen and strengthen the muscles. The Pilates Body is like a dancer’s body: agile, long, lean toned and trim. Joseph Pilates promised that in ten sessions you will feel the difference. In twenty, you will see the difference and in thirty you’ll have a whole new body. Pilates benefits everyone from post-rehabilitation patients to athletes.
