Building on the principles of Joseph Pilates, the Pilates method of exercise develops a strong "core", or center of the body. Control of the core is achieved by integrting the trunk, pelvis and shoulder girdle. In many conventional workouts, weak muscles tend to get weaker and
strong muscles tend to get stronger. The result is muscular imbalance. This imbalance can lead to injury and potentially chronic pain in the back as well as other parts of the body.

Pilates exercises train several muslce groups simultaneously in smooth, precise, continuoius movements. By developing proper technique, you
can re-train your body to move in safer, more efficient patterns of
motion, which is invaluable for injury recovery, sports performanced, improved posture and optimal health. Reformer sessions are held at the Progressive Pilates studio located in Cornelius, NC. Pricing for private reformer sessions and small class format are available upon request.
