This promotes “core stability” which enhances spinal/pelvic awareness, protecting the spine against injury while supporting the internal organs and promoting good posture. The Pilates thoracic (chest) breathing is incorporated to help increase lung capacity and enhance stamina and endurance. This breath activates the abdominal and pelvic floor muscles helping to protect and strengthen the lower back, tone the belly, trim the waist and assist with core stability.
