Authentic Pilates Taught Here
What Sets Us Apart
Authentic Pilates /Classical Pilates
Pilates is a disciplined physical system with a series of precise, controlled movements it targets all muscle groups. While there are endless adaptations of Pilates currently offered at studios and gyms, Classical or Authentic Pilates is considered to be the practice in its truest, most effective form since it incorporates all elements of movement. Thatās not to say that other versions should be dismissed ā far from it ā but if youāre looking for authenticity, this might be where you want to start.
authentic Instructors
Our instructors have more than 500 hours of training, we're consistently delivering results for our clients. Our Fundamentals Four Course Pack will provide you with the foundations for good Pilates work, no matter where your journey takes you. We have top-of-the-line Gratz equipment that make the difference in your learning and building of your Authentic Pilates practice.
Our approach
In the original Authentic-Classical Pilates method thereās a sequence to the work, which was designed to move the body through a full range of movement. The sequence builds intelligently with foundational exercises at the beginning and more complex exercises as you gain strength and control.
Why It Matters
At MindBody the instructors focus on the entire body, mind and working all the components that makes it so powerful. The transitions between exercises are exercises in themselves and itās important to keep the work one seamless, continuous flow. Our practice focuses on precision, control, and flow in every movement, emphasizing the mind-body connection and the use of the powerhouse (core) muscles
