Pilates
Pilates is a systematic holistic body workout, which mainly addresses the low-lying muscle groups. The focus is on the so-called «powerhouse» – the low-lying back and abdominal muscles, which together with the pelvic floor and breathing provide stability and an upright posture.
The pilates exercises are either trained on equipment or directly on the mat and are flowing, controlled and performed with rather few repetitions, so that muscles and joints are spared.
Conscious, calm breathing plays an important role in pilates. It promotes the circulation of all structures, relieves tension and helps to become more stress-resistant and more balanced in everyday life. Therefore, pilates may also be referred to as training for body, mind and soul, which leads to a new body awareness with regular execution.
Pilates is gentle yet intense, exhausting and at the same time relaxing, demanding and yet easy to learn for everyone.

Pilates mat
Mat training is mainly done with your own body. The exercises are performed in different positions directly on the mat. The training can be supplemented and modified by various small devices such as toning balls, magic circles, foam rollers, soft balls, elastic bands or the Balance Board. This makes pilates versatile and diversified. The group lessons on the mat are suitable for beginners as well as advanced practitioners.

Pilates Reformer
Qualified studios offer Pilates training today not only on the mat. The Reformer as probably the best known and at the same time one of the most versatile studio equipment developed by Joseph H. Pilates is very popular. The innumerable and differentiated adjustment, variation and modification possibilities of this device offer optimal conditions for an extremely individual and joint-gentle personal training. The Reformer promotes the quality of movement and body perception, so that imbalances and unfavourable movement patterns in the body can be quickly recognised and successfully corrected.
In contrast to the mat work, which focuses strongly on the core with its deep-lying muscles, the Reformer works with the entire body: the peripheral muscles of the arms and legs are increasingly trained.
Training on the Reformer is used today by therapists in rehabilitation as well as by amateur sportsmen and professional athletes who are looking for a complementary training to their usual sport. It is fun and possible regardless of age or training level. Try it out!
