the pilates method

Joseph Pilates developed this holistic exercise system in the early 1900s, drawing inspiration from many different forms of movement including boxing, weight training, yoga, martial arts, and ballet. The Pilates method of exercise offered a chance to improve physical performance and recovery from injury.

Joseph concluded that within any sport discipline, both the mental and physical elements had to be respected – this relationship formed the foundation of Pilates.

Pilates can be performed with or without specialist equipment, and provides a balanced, whole-body exercise programme.

Hear from the Core Connexion Community

I used to really suffer with a lower back problem and would have to stop to stretch my back when out and about. Since coming to Core Connexion, my core strength has improved and I don’t have to do that anymore!

I love the Challenge classes to try more advanced exercises.
I do a lot of other exercise forms and I feel the core strength and stability Pilates gives you had supported all of these activities; and help to stop injuries before they start.
