Pilates Mat/Tower Classes
Pilates “mat” work is a rhythmic, flowing set of movements which increase strength, flexibility and stamina while also improving alignment, balance, coordination and tone. The result of the workout is a uniformly developed body with strong back and abdominal muscles. The “tower” utilizes spring tension to both aid the student as well as to add challenge. There are countless different movements in our Pilates Mat/Tower classes and these are performed seated, standing, on all fours, or lying on your back, side or front.
