PILATES PRINCIPLES
1. CONCENTRATION
The aim is to be able to fully focus on each movement. One movement flowing into the next bringing body and mind together.
2. BREATH
Correct breathing ensures a good flow of oxygen to the working muscles. It also improves concentration and aids smooth and fluid movement.
3. CENTERING
In Pilates it is believed that all movement comes from a strong centre ‘core’. The body is designed to work as a complete unit and if you train to do this you will have a solid centre to create the physical power for each movement.
4. RELAXATION
You will learn how to focus your mind on what body is feeling. By identifying any areas of tension you can work to release any stress and relax through the body.
5. QUALITY
Correct alignment of the bosy is crucial when exercising. Mastering the techniques of Pilates is the key to quality execution of the various movements.
6. FLOWING MOVEMENT
All Pilates exercises should be performed in continuous flowing way, aiming to achieve slow controlled movement.
7. AWARENESS
You will learn your strengths and weaknesses which, in turn, will bring body awareness and control.
8. STAMINA
Pilates strengthens the body preparing it for all daily activities.
