MAT CLASSES

These classes take place in a group setting of up to 10 people using your body weight as the primary source of resistance but also including small apparatus such as hand/leg weights, pilates balls, bosu, resistance bands and foam rollers. Focus is placed on precise movements originating from the center or core of your body. Learn the fundamentals of Pilates floor exercises and the principles of breathing, concentration and coordination in a friendly, supportive environment. Improve coordination, posture, body awareness, and strength. The Mat Pilates class provides a low-impact workout for people of all ages.
