Pilates with Lara

What is Pilates? ……Such a simple question and yet so difficult for us to answer, because Pilates is so many great health and fitness benefits all rolled into one.

To answer it, I’m going to steal the words of one of my favourite Pilates Master teachers, Alycea Ungaro.

She recently replied that Pilates is ‘Your total health insurance policy’ and this is why:

It is our Cardio workout – we work up a sweat. That is important because Heart Disease is a real concern.
It is our coordination training, our balance training and our postural training.

It is our Strength training – we work until our muscles shake and tremor. That is important because we lose a little muscle mass every year, as we age.
It is our mental workout – because the intense concentration that is required to execute a proper workout, leaves you free of any stress.
