STOTT PILATES - the difference
Pilates is a method of exercise that focuses on working the muscles from the inside out rather than the outside in. This means that the deepest layers of muscles in the torso (inc. transversus abdominis and pelvic floor) are trained to protect the lower back while allowing the body to perform movements with more ease and fluidity.
All instructors who work at the Pilates Exercise & Therapy Centre are certified in the STOTT PILATES exercise method. Originating in Toronto, Canada STOTT PILATES has earned an international reputation as the world’s most respected Pilates brand and STOTT PILATES Certified Instructors are some of the most sought after Pilates teachers in the world.
