Restorative Pilates
Restorative Pilates is a slower paced class to allow more detailed explanation of movement to facilitate a return to healthy movement for anyone experiencing restrictions. Positions don't push the end of one's range of motion, and are not held for any extended length to avoid over fatigue. Exercise involving weight bearing on hands/wrists is minimized, and abdominal challenge is modified to avoid over stressing one's neck or low back.
