Certified GYROKINESIS® and GYROTONIC® method teacher at Body Awareness Studio - Sandy Springs, GA, US
Since 1993, Body Awareness Studio has been serving Atlanta students with the industry's most established Pilates professionals. Primarily based on the method of training and rehabilitation developed by Joseph H. Pilates, Body Awareness also combines the best of Pilates, Resistance Stretching and Energy Medicine to train a uniformly developed body, mind and spirit.The Pilates classes at Body Awareness Studio offer a gentle, yet highly effective fitness program. The equipment used in the Pilates method utilizes multiple springs, rather than weights, to create resistance. The movement is slow and rhythmic, with the focus on using correct body mechanics to develop the major postural muscles. Pilates exercises strengthen the body's core muscles, producing a flat stomach, strong lower back, and toned buttocks, inner thighs and hamstrings. Emphasis on stretching creates long, flexible muscles. Controlled, thoughtful movement reduces the effects of stress on the body and the mind.
