Private Somatic Pilates Session
$95
Originally called “Contrology,” Pilates is a method of whole body exercise designed to improve daily activities and livelihood.
Though there is an emphasis on core work, core strength alone is not the end goal. Rather, using that core strength to develop functional and sustainable movement patterns throughout the body is the goal.
Created in the early 20th century by Joseph Pilates, the exercises coordinate movement and breath together to work the smaller and deeper stabilizing muscles of the body as much as your prime movers.
Pilates aligns your entire body’s overall structure and supports its joints. What appears to look simple can be deceptively challenging and incredibly effective when done correctly with good form.
Pilates is a low impact exercise that creates optimal strength through muscle balance and fine-tuning neuromuscular patterns.
The optimal strength gained from a consistent Pilates practice is nonrigid, balancing strength with mobility and flexibility. It helps you move and breathe through your daily activities with more freedom and power and less pain.

“Being a Pilates instructors I find Clinical Somatics is an ideal addition to my teaching technique, because the intention of Pilates and CSE are quite similar: to address underlying imbalances in body use by retraining learned patterns; to elongate muscles, relieve pain, and improve posture and overall physical function; and to improve internal awareness of the body. Yet, Pilates can be too intense for people who are starting out with a great deal of pain and tension. The extremely slow, gentle, tension-releasing technique of pandiculation is a highly effective way to help these clients get out of pain and be able to practice Pilates safely.”
