PILATES TOWER (open-level)

About this event

Limited to 5 people or less, this group class consists of Pilates exercises utilizing the Pilates Tower and at times other equipment such as the Pilates Chair & Mat-work at instructor's discretion. It is for ALL LEVELS. The Tower consists of a padded mat at the base and upright tower bars that arm and leg springs attach to, along with a push-through bar. We do require that if the student has no prior Pilates Equipment experience that they complete an Intro Assessment Private lesson and/or a 90min Intro to Pilates Equipment workshop and/or a 30-min Pilates Intro class before joining an Open-Level Pilates Equipment class. The instructor will meet your body where you are at, and challenge you from there. Exercises may be modified accordingly to each students' needs & abilities. These classes are designed to flow smoothly and efficiently through each exercise, offering a balanced whole-body workout of strengthening, stretching, breath, control, concentration and balance using both classical and contemporary Pilates technique. Exercises on the equipment may be performed supine, prone, standing, sitting, kneeling and everything in between and adjusted to accommodate all bodies and fitness levels. Students should bring a water bottle and wear comfortable clothing that isn’t too baggy. This class is 50-min long.
