Improve your physical strength, flexibility and posture, and enhance mental awareness.

Pilates is a mind-body fitness program that incorporates breathing and movement to achieve a balanced muscular system and increased body awareness.

Pilates exercises develop the core ie trunk strength, stability and flexibility. When the core muscles are strong and doing their job, as the are trained to do in Pilates, they work in tandem with the more superficial muscles of the trunk to support the spine and movement.

Pilates exercises can be adjusted to suit all levels of fitness.

Taught by Tiina Aarnio, Deep-Stretching and Pilates Instructor, Physiotherapist, MSc Health Sciences.

How to dress:
Wear comfortable clothes that stretch and do not restrict your movements, preferably not too baggy or loose. Socks and a sweatshirt are optional. If you have an exercise or camping mat, bring that along too.
