Pilates Weekend
2nd - 6th July 2009

Rejuvenate your mind and body away from the pressures of life on this long weekend of Pilates in the tranquil French Alps.

 

"It is the mind itself which builds the body." Joseph Pilates

Pilates offers both mental and physical training, literally teaching you to be in control of your body. Targeting the deep postural muscles, it works by building strength from the inside out, rebalancing the body and bringing it into correct alignment. It helps to reshape your body, which will become longer, leaner and more toned. Its slow, controlled approach is a great way to relieve unwanted stress and tension in the body.

The core of the Pilates Method is awareness of your own body, and each and every exercise is built around its eight key principles: relaxation, breathing, concentration, alignment, centering, co-ordination, flowing movement and stamina.
