Pilates is a full body workout focused on increasing overall strength, flexibility, stability, and balance within the body. The specific series of exercises are designed to challenge your entire body, but with a specific focus on the deep abdominal and back muscles. Practicing Pilates regularly improves posture and increases coordination, joint mobility, lung capacity, balance, and core strength. Pilates is used to regain strength after injury or pregnancy as well as a rehabilitation program for lower back pain, and neck problems. Used as a form of cross training, athletes such as runners, tennis players, golfers, triathletes, professional football, basketball and baseball players have noticed drastic changes in their performances with Pilates. Consistency is key when the goal is to change your body. That’s why we offer three different options to train with us: Private Sessions Small Group Sessions Small Group Classes https://www.lstudioct.com/book-a-session daily 0.75 2025-09-08 https://www.lstudioct.com/studio-policies daily 0.75 2025-12-24 https://www.lstudioct.com/pricing daily 0.75 2025-12-24 https://www.lstudioct.com/virtual daily 0.75 2025-01-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb93cf85d27c00d596657b6/1607376282324-0JYFZK17KM9KFJPL4HPY/L-Studio_Virtual.jpg Virtual - virtual Sessions Virtual Pilates sessions allow you to stay healthy, active and experience the many benefits of the Pilates Method of Body Conditioning without leaving your home or office.
