The whole Christmas and New Year period can feel overwhelming so this is a little reminder to us all just to stop and enjoy the moment…and breathe.
Pilates has so many additional benefits than just fitness, improving your breathing techniques can help manage stress and improve overall lung function.
Deep breathing, concentrating on your breath increases oxygen flow to your mind and muscles, will calm the body down and we do this in class to improve our stamina and energy and help facilitate movement.
In a pilates session, co-ordinating your breath with your movements ensures that you’re not only working your muscles effectively but also helps to maintain your body’s energy levels throughout each session.
I want you to feel good after your session and get the full benefit from Pilates – you deserve it!
