Life is Motion. Pilates is Movement for Life. A fusion of the mind and body based on the reawakening of dormant muscle and brain cells, Pilates gives us the opportunity to live a life where the gap between functional motion and enlivened thought has been bridged.
Concentration in Pilates refers to where you are sending your thoughts in your movements. Your concentration directs which muscles you use to execute the movement.
Happy holidays everyone! For the last few months I’ve been posting about the yoga aspect of the Core Chakra practice and haven’t shared as much information on the pilates side to this incredible method. In yoga, there are so many different philosophies and ancient wisdoms that shape this unique healing art.
In the classes, we focus on two complementary Principles of Pilates: Concentration and Relaxation. Pilates is not just about physical conditioning but also about mental conditioning. As we move, we practice focusing on the present, being mindful of our body and encouraging conscious thought to focus purely on the task of moving correctly.
