PILATES SESSION:
Principles of Yoga, Martial Arts and Gymnastics combine to form this unique system of conditioning. The machines, designed during the First World War by Joseph H. Pilates, allow for varying resistance to the designed movement sequences. The method emphasizes mental attentiveness and control, sometimes known as Contrology.
Pilates is sometimes practiced without machines, on mats, using the body's resistance against gravity and increasingly challenging sequences that help align posture and enhance the body's core strength. Once reserved as a method of conditioning for dancers and actors, Pilates is a discipline that can bring tangible health benefits to anyone. The main classroom will offer mat classes for group exercise.
Yoga: Yoga will be a mainstay of Embora training. From the relaxing to the vigorous, Yoga will always be presented in a progressive form attempting to adhere to tradition by encouraging a natural progression to higher levels of conditioning.
