Four Phases of Pilates at Life Time
Your first session is on us. Intro to Pilates is your invitation to come into the studio, and start to experience the benefits yourself.
Phase 1 – Learning Foundational Movements
In the beginning, you’ll discover how foundational movements influence everyday activities, like squatting or carrying groceries. This phase helps awaken your core, while your instructor learns how to best support your individual coaching needs.
Phase 2 – Deepening Your Activation and Execution
As you progress, you’ll notice that Pilates starts to enhance your daily life—you’ll sit taller, feel more confident, and become stronger. Your instructor fine-tunes their guidance to maximize your muscle activation and movement quality.
Phase 3 – Progression in the Repertoire as You Master Essential Movements
You’ll feel stronger and more mobile, enabling you to tackle challenges you once found daunting. With each session, your instructor provides just the right level of challenge, helping you master movements with grace and purpose.
Phase 4 – See the Changes and Crave More Pilates
At this stage, Pilates becomes an integral part of your life and a cherished escape. The bonds you form with fellow participants deepen, and you’ll eagerly look forward to your sessions, with your instructor intuitively guiding your progress.
