Inspiration
- Quite by Claudia Winkleman. “It’s uplifting and funny”.
- Dance Technique & Injury Prevention by Justin Howse. “It’s quite phenomenal. It’s my top reference book – the information in there is really, really good. It doesn’t work for everyone’s injuries, but it’s something I will refer to quite a lot”.
Benefits of Pilates
- Move fluidly. Keep your fascia (the substance that encapsulates muscles) nice and lubricated. You’ll be able to move more fluidly, with fewer of those pops and creaks.
- Get stronger. The stronger your core, the less likely you are to sustain injury.
- Be balanced. Pilates was designed to create more symmetry within the body, to create a strong core. It’s about retraining the body structure, so it’s a very practical sort of exercise.
