Mat & Beyond Classes
Fifty minute Pilates mat classes are designed to help the individual develop
core strength, movement control, increase flexibility and improve posture.
Students will be guided through a full range of traditional Pilates exercises
that emphasize precise sequencing of movement and proper alignment. More
efficient movement patterns are taught in many different positions such as
seated, lying down, all fours and standing. Proper use of the breath to
facilitate movement from the core will be emphasized.
Fitness Fusion Classes
Fitness Fusion is a high energy, low impact, fat burning workout. Its focus is
on
intensive isometric movements that sculpt the thighs, tone and firm the
buttocks, flatten the abdominals and define the arms. Focused stretching to
lengthen, tone and increase flexibility compliments a total body workout.
Fitness Fusion incorporates current biomechanical principles and is a fusion of
Pilates, ballet barre exercises, kettlebell, and general fitness concepts. It is available to all fitness levels and
perfect for those that safely want to change their appearance and have fun
doing so! See and feel results within just a few classes!

balance and bone density. Each class will meet for fifty minutes.
