Pilates
Pilates is a whole body conditioning program for all levels and needs. The practice develops core strength, endurance, and coordination without adding muscle bulk. It improves posture, increases energy, and promotes weight loss. Pilates also helps to lengthen the muscles and gives a long lean appearance to the body. The focus of Pilates is on strengthening the body's "core" or "powerhouse", that are the deep, internal muscles of the abdomen and back. As the core muscles become stronger they begin to work in tandem with the more superficial muscles of the trunk to support the spine and overall movement. Students practicing Pilates regularly will learn to integrate its six principles, Centering, Control, Flow, Breath, Precision, and Concentration, in a variety of forms or routines to find balance, strength, and ease of movement.
Improving your quality of life by fusing your body, mind and spirit is the goal of the well-being classes now being offered at Crossings Spa. Space is limited. Registration is required. Call 262-373-2630. (Drop-in is permitted for these classes at $15.00 per class if space permits.)
