Developed by former professional dancer Moira Merrithew, with input from sports medicine professionals, STOTT PILATES is a contemporary, anatomically-based approach to Joseph Pilates' original exercise method that was developed in the late 1800’s.

Its exercises safely deliver optimal strength, flexibility and endurance, without adding bulk.  In some respects pilates conditioning is like yoga. Both are considered mind-body type methods of movement; both emphasize deep breathing and smooth, long movements that encourage your muscles to relax and lengthen. The difference is that while yoga requires moving from one static posture to the next without repetitions, pilates flows through a series of movements that are more dynamic, systematic and anatomically-based. The goal with STOTT PILATES exercises is to achieve optimal functional fitness.

CARDIOLATES:  the fusion of Pilates & Rebounding: CARDIOLATES® is a revolutionary fitness training program which combines the cardiovascular and cellular benefits of rebounding with the core strengthening and postural benefits of Pilates. Pilates effectively strengthens and flattens the abs, lengthens and tones muscles and improves posture, but it fails to provide one important health benefit: cardiovascular activity. Rebounding strengthens the body’s musculoskeletal system by providing an increased gravitational load without the impact to the joints that running, jogging or aerobics generates.

Benefits include:  Low-impact on joints:  87% of one’s body weight is absorbed;  68% more efficient than running at a moderate pace;  Improves body composition (Melts Fat!);  Improves endurance & cardiovascular health;  Increases bone density and fortifies the immune system;  Increases balances & agility;  and Strengthens the core & pelvic floor muscles.
