WHAT IS PILATES AT LIGHTSPACE?
Pilates is a movement system designed to stabilize, strengthen, stretch, and balance the entire physical body. At LightSpace we refer to Pilates as “Dynamic Stability.” Pilates exercises restore strength and length to the body’s postural muscles and to the muscles around the joints, those “deep core” muscles, helping you achieve optimal alignment and healthier, more efficient movement. Pilates conditioning helps develop strength, flexibility, coordination, speed, agility, and endurance.
WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE?
At LightSpace, your Pilates practice is more than just physical exercise. The deep internal focus you achieve by integrating Qigong into Pilates movements (QI-LATES) can help you eliminate energetic blockages that act as roadblocks to free, fluid, and efficient movement. These blockages often take the form of muscular tension or “knots”, stress and anxiety, or injury, all of which can prevent proper postural alignment and pain-free movement. The result is healthier and more efficient movement in every aspect of your life.
