These shots were taken on assignment for an article about local businesses. Georgia, the owner of 3rd Street Pilates, was great to work with, as was her assistant. The benefits of pilates are obvious….just look at Georgia who has been practicing for 15 years!

In the 1920’s Joseph H. Pilates developed a unique method of whole body conditioning based on the power of connecting the mind, the body and the breath in focused movements. This method of exercise develops strength, flexibility and coordination while improving the body’s postural alignment.

In Pilates, movements originate from the inside out, working the deep musculature of the body to stablize and support the spine. As a result, the spine elongates while muscles are toned and balanced. The center of the body strengthens, enabling it to support the skeletal system and improving the body’s resistance to injury and fatigue.

Pilates, once known only to dancers and athletes, is now recognized as a leading form of exercise for prevention and rehabilitation of spinal and joint injuries.
