Pilates in Chester

Pilates in Chester offers people in Chester and the area of Cheshire, the opportunity to learn the art of pilates.

Body Control Pilates is very closely based upon the method of body conditioning and training developed by the late Joseph Pilates over 75 years ago. It is an exercise method, which relies on strengthening core postural muscles and developing body alignment. Central to the method is 'awareness of your own body' and each and every exercise is built around its eight basic principles: Concentration, relaxation, alignment, breathing, centering, co-ordination, stamina and flowing movements.

Almost anyone can do pilates, with special classes suited to those with conditions such as osteoporosis or joint replacement. Pilates will strengthen the postural muscle system and 'core stability' of the body will be achieved.
