Therapeutic Pilates
A Saint Louis Pilates Studio
Classes taught by Amanda Tennant, a Missouri Licensed Physical Therapist and a Polestar
Pilates Certified Instructor.
Pilates (puh-LAH-teez) is a low impact system of flexibility and strengthening exercises used to:
- Improve posture, postural awareness, and balance
- Increase fluidity of movement
- Balance mind, body, and spirit
- Integrate appropriate breath with exercise
Focusing on the "powerhouse," which consists of your stomach, back, and gluteal muscles,
you will learn safe and effective ways to gain core strength while creating a long and lean
physique. Ultimately, pilates teaches us to maximize the efficiency of our daily movements
while minimizing unnecessary stress and strain to the body.
