DESCRIPTION:Geralyn Coopersmith Director of Equinox Fitness Training Inst
 itute in New York City says-"Fitness pros say bigger benefits (than usin
 g weight machines)- more strength\, increased stamina\, &amp\; resistanc
 e to injury - comes from functional exercises that engage numerous muscl
 es &amp\; mimic real-world movement. (Think boot camp\, Pilates.... basi
 c pushups &amp\; planks).&nbsp\; You can build specific muscles on weigh
 t machines\, but that type of strength doesn't translate well to everyda
 y life". ( March Vogue)\nIf you have been curious about Pilates or would
  like to get in better shape but not sure where to begin\, this is the c
 lass for you.\nPilates works the whole body\, emphasizing control\, prec
 ision and concentration in both the mind and the body. The focus of the 
 movements is on quality not quantity.The abdominal muscles lower back an
 d buttocks (&ldquo\;powerhouse&rdquo\;) serve as the center of all movem
 ent\, allowing the rest of the body to move freely. Its six principles-c
 oncentration\, control\, centering\, breathing\, flow and precision-trai
 n the body to move efficiently.\nThe balance between strength and flexib
 ility creates a healthy\, symmetrical workout for all muscle groups resu
 lting in a leaner\, more balanced\, and stronger body.\nThis class is li
 mited to&nbsp\;5 people &amp\; is perfect for the beginner. Advanced reg
 istration is required.\nAll exercises are modified so that everyone\, re
 gardless of limitations\, can get a good workout.
