Pilates - A workout for your mind and body

While Pilates may seem a relatively new type of training, it was actually created by Joseph Pilates in the early 1900s and eventually emigrated to the United States around 1925. We've all heard of training that the promise of a better body, but really Pilates offers that promise. In the words of the founder of Pilates "In 10 sessions you will feel the difference in 20 you will notice the difference, and 30, will have a new body."

Pilates is unique because it offers training that translates into longer, thinner and stronger legs, midsection and base, and makes you feel very energized after a workout, not empty. Pilates is a complete workout that combines Eastern and Western practices and mental fitness.

With pilates, you get the benefits of a yoga class with incredible muscle tone that comes with a workout with weights. In Pilates, all is harmony and balance in your body to move through the prescribed movements.

Perhaps the greatest benefit of a Pilates workout is that it changes how you feel in your body. The training is both physical and mental. So if you're tired of looking in the mirror on a small disappointment, Pilates may be just the training you need. Not only increase their vitality, but also makes you feel younger and tones muscles, removal of the muscles that have become loose due to the lack of exercise.

So if you are considering buying a new training and are tired of empty promises, why not try a practice that has existed for nearly a hundred years?
