Benefits and Personal Stories

Pilates at Natural Balance provides students with a wide range of benefits. A regular routine will bring you a higher level of body awareness, improve your core, elongate and strengthen muscles. One of the most satisfying benefits comes from the knowledge that you are spending this time at the studio in mindful exercise, staying focused on your body, enjoying how each movement feels, aware of the physical power that is generated by a focused mind.

When a regular schedule of pilates mat and or reformer/chair classes is achieved the benefits are seen within weeks. They include:

• Core strength (abdominal and back)
• Toned and strengthened muscles
• Improved body awareness
• Increased flexibility
• Enhanced cardio vascular endurance
• Improved digestive and internal organ function
• Stress reduction
