Our program for this Pilates lesson:
Warm up: Activate your body
We start with a gentle warm-up to prepare your body for the workout. Flowing movements and breathing exercises promote blood circulation, release tension and create a connection between body and mind.
Full body strengthening: Abdomen, back and more
The torso is the basis for a strong and stable body. With Pilates you can specifically strengthen your abdominal and back muscles as well as limbs and at the same time bring them into suppleness. We will show you exercise combinations that activate your core and promote good posture.
Stretch, mobilize, relax:
After deep strengthening exercises, it is important to relax your body. Through guided stretching and mobilization exercises we relax body and mind.
Outlook: With regular practice, you will feel the positive effects on your body, strength and flexibility. Remember that Pilates is a holistic approach that strengthens not only your body, but also your mind.
