Is Pilates Right For Me?
Not every style of exercise is for every body. (Notice I made the separation in 2 words, meaning each body is different, & each body needs different things.)
​
For example, yoga is not appropriate for my body. Why? I have more than enough flexibility, probably too much, so my body needs joint stability, and that is what Pilates gives me.
​
It depends on what you’re looking for and what you need. Pilates provides body awareness, which everyone needs, strength & flexibility. So do other types of exercise. But probably some of the best benefits of Pilates are balance & symmetry. Again, to answer the question if it’s right for you, ask yourself if you need any of those things in your life.
​
Pilates is also great cross-training. So if you follow one discipline of exercise exclusively, or if you participate in 1 sport specifically, you can benefit from the cross-training in Pilates. Pilates will teach you lessons about movement that you can apply to the other styles of exercise & sports. It can also teach you functional lessons, lessons that you can apply to movement in your everyday life.
​
So you really have to try it to see. With that in mind, I offer an Intro to Pilates package. It is 3 sessions in which you learn the Basic Principles & begin to move on the Mat & Reformer. We then add other equipment as you go along. But it gives you the opportunity to sample Pilates & see if it is right for you. If you’re interested & inquisitive, please give me a call to schedule a session.
