Think you can't do Pilates
because you are "Not Flexible"?
Something I frequently hear from people is,
“I’m not flexible.”
To which I respond,
“Then Pilates is right where you want to be.” 😊
The regular practice of Pilates has a wealth of benefits! One that many of us strive for as we age is to maintain flexibility. Thankfully, this is right in line with Joseph H. Pilates' concepts. One of his famous quotes is
"You are only as young as your spine is flexible"
- Joseph Pilates
From the head to the tail, it is very typical during a Pilates class with CoeDynamics in Redondo Beach to move through a variety of spinal planes...
flexion
extension
side flexion
rotation
...and even in a combination.
This is not just done during Pilates, but also in your daily life (believe it or not!).
For example, the basic mechanics used for getting in and out of a car require rotation flexion and extension. A Golf or Tennis swing both use a combination of rotation, flexion and extension.
This is one reason why Pilates is so popular across a broad range of individuals, from youth, to wisdom age; athletes to those in post-rehabilitation stages and everyone in between.
In keeping with the theme of Flexibility,
CoeDynamics Pilates & Functional Health in Redondo Beach
offers a flexible range of Pilates trio sessions
with flexible package options and schedules.
