Designed in the early 1900’s by Joseph H. Pilates, Pilates is a system of controlled precise movements which bio-mechanically re-trains all the muscles of your body for optimal bone strengthening alignment and posture.
Pilates uses spring resistance to help develop muscular power, endurance, and proper movement along with strengthening the “core.” The “core” or “powerhouse” refers to a group of muscles and tissue around the crucial area of the lower trunk and hips. This group includes the lower spine, sacrum, pelvis, and femurs. Strengthening the muscles that attach to these areas, such as the abdominals, psoas, spinal erectors and glutes, is necessary to stabilize and control this “core” area. Since the core is the foundation of all movement (kind of like a starfish, where all movement radiates out from the center), any weakness, instability or dysfunction can cause minor to severe strain and discomfort throughout the entire body.
It is not uncommon for the NOMI Pilates team to send a “body” home with a foam roller, a spine corrector, and corrective tips so that a client can improve their balance, movement and overall mind body awareness.
Safe, effective and tailored for each different body, NOMI Pilates not only teaches state of the art movement but invests in the body, mind and soul. Transform in the ethereal, energetic space and meet an amazing team who will not only train you in movement, but give you the skills to become more functional, aware, and NOMI Pilates!
