Course Overview
Strengthen, Stretch & Shine: 3-Week Pilates Course to Get Summer-Ready!
Pilates is a low-impact, full-body workout designed to improve core strength, flexibility, and posture while promoting a sense of calm and well-being.
Pilates focuses on precise, controlled movements, and is suitable for all fitness levels, offering modifications to challenge or support participants based on their individual needs.
During this 3-week course, students engage in a series of Pilates exercises that target the core, enhance flexibility, and improve overall body alignment and strength.
