What is Pilates?
Pilates is an innovative and safe system of mind-body exercise using a floor mat and/or a variety of specialized equipment. It can dramatically transform the way your body feels, looks and performs.
Pilates is a safe, sensible exercise method that teaches body awareness, good posture and easy, graceful movement. It strengthens the whole body with every exercise starting from the activation of core muscles. Pilates also improves flexibility and increases range of movement. It can even help reduce back and joint pains which often caused by muscle imbalance.
The most beautiful aspect of Pilates is its flexibility. No matter what your age or condition, Pilates will work for you. An experienced Pilates instructor is capable to modify the exercises to suit your level or condition.
In recent years, Pilates has been popular for rehabilitation. Researches have proven that Pilates can be effective treatment for many conditions, including chronic neck and back pain, scoliosis, knee and hip replacement and other conditions.

Who can do Pilates?
Should I take Private 1-on-1 or Group Class?
Private 1-on-1 is the best and most effective way of practicing Pilates. The exercises are carefully selected to help you achieve your personal fitness goals; at the same time, they can be modified according to your current physical condition. During a private 1-on-1 session, your whole-body workout will be safely instructed using a combination of Pilates apparatus.
At WellFit4EVER a regular private session lasts 45 or 55 minutes. The initial session may take up to 65 minutes. During this initial session, I will first conduct a postural assessment on you then will take you through a set of exercises in which I will identify your range of movement and any muscle imbalance. Based on these findings and information shared by you and your physical therapist (if you have seen a therapist), I will design a Pilates exercise program just for you.
