What Makes Pilates Different?
Low-Impact Workout
Pilates is easy on your joints thanks to the fact that you are lying on a Reformer. By lying horizontally, you avoid the pressure of own body weight from gravity and instead select the exact number of springs you feel comfortable using for resistance.
Focuses on the Core
Pilates exercises tend to focus on your “core” i.e. abdominal muscles, hence the name of PeaceCore Studios. Whichever Reformer class you end up taking, you’ll invariably feel your abdominal muscles working in different ways than a typical workout.
Relieves Pain
In being a low-impact workout that focuses on core muscles, Pilates is an ideal wellness program for those seeking to strengthen their body while relieving themselves of pain.
