Adelaide Pilates for Active People and Athletes
We have some elite level athletes down to amateur level athletes across a number of sports who partake in our Pilates classes to ensure they are balancing their bodies and maintaining a high level of equilibrium, strength & flexibility to prevent injury.
Due to Pilates being such a versatile activity we can make it a whole-body exercise system. We have the ability to tailor it implement functional strength, functional flexibility, coordination and balance. This is even more so if you are an athlete that is on the recovery path from injury prior to hitting the gym or in conjunction with a gym-based strength and conditioning program. We start by building the core through some lengthening and strengthening exercises associated with the lower back, hips and abs. When then move this into a more functional programming including rotational and multilimbed movements while including your sport specific demands ad a wide variety of equipment and movement.
Adelaide Pilates for People across the Life Span
Pilates is a great form of exercise for people across the life span! As we move along the age continuum, we can start become a bit more inactive and potentially begin to be limited in our mobility and freedom, sometimes feelings of stiffness can take over. In turn this can lead us to lacking strength and the things we love to do can become a bit more difficult. As we age healthy movement becomes critical for ensuring our balance, strength, general fitness and stability. Exercise then becomes extremely important when helping to manage the pain symptoms related with arthritis and aches and pains helping people move better, reduce fragility improve balance and control allowing them to enjoy all aspects of their life.
