Why Pilates?
Are you suffering from back pain? Have you had surgery and need to rehabilitate and recover your strength and mobility? Are you an athlete looking to improve your performance? Then Pilates is THE workout for you. Pilates not only creates amazing strength, but with regular practice, improves alignment creating better posture, improves balance, flexibility and mobility which can lead to a reduction or complete elimination of back, neck and shoulder pain, all while teaching your body how to move with more efficiency, improving your sports and life performance.

The Pilates practice addresses the whole body, not just the part that is a problem. If you are experiencing back pain it may be from a problem with your feet. If you are experiencing neck or shoulder pain, it may come from a mal-alignment in the spine. By working the whole body and training it to move better, more efficiently and effectively, problems tend to resolve themselves.

Why Pilates at The Sanctuary?
You are a unique individual and your body moves in a unique way. Each of our instructors uses the Pilates principles of movement in a way that will support your body. We will work with you to find the movement patterns that are limiting you and help you to correct them so that you are able to move better and without pain. We'll help you find the body that will allow you to get down on the floor with your children or grand children, the body that will support you in gardening the way you want, play the sports that you enjoy and to spend a day in movement without pain. All of our instructors are trained through nationally recognized schools to help you live the life you want to live. In Joseph Pilates words "Physical fitness is the attainment and maintenance of a uniformly developed body with a sound mind fully capable of naturally, easily, and satisfactorily performing our many and varied daily tasks with spontaneous zest and pleasure.” – Joseph Pilates, Return to Life Through Contrology(Pilates)
