WHO?: Everyone in the Johnstown, PA area looking for the ultimate beach body this summer! Join Pilates Method Alliance (PMA) instructor Lauren Pappas, for PAPPAS’ PILATES!!!
WHAT?: First, let’s address the infamous question: “What is Pilates?…Is kind of it like Yoga?” Answer: Pilates is a physical fitness program developed in Germany during the early 20th century by Joseph Pilates and his wife Clara. Joe Pilates initially called his program “contrology,” as he based his work on mastering control of both the mind and the body for ultimate well-being. By practicing Pilates, students will lengthen and stengthen muscles, improve coordination, and achieve balance throughout their bodies. While Pilates undoudbtedly incorporates some yogi principles, the Pilates Series contains distinct exercises that focus on six principles: control, centering, concentration, precision, flowing movement, and breathing- the foundation. All mat exercises are initiated by the core (abdominals) in order to align the spine, balancing the body.
