Asked Questions
What
is Pilates?
Pilates
is a form of exercise that builds your muscles from the inside
out, unlike regular weight lifting, by giving you proper posture,
relieving up to 85% of back pain, and obtaining long lean muscles.
Why come to The Core?......

relieving back pain, sciatica, scoliosis, etc. We at The Core
are very knowledgeable.
What
should I wear?
Workout
Clothing (leggings, tank tops, and so on) is the most practical
and will allow you to see the muscles you are working. No shoes
or sneakers. Don’t wear pants with belt loops or anything
that will irritate your back while performing the movements of
mat work.
What
type of mat should I use?
Any
mat or pad that is thick or dense enough to support and protect
the delicate vertebrae of your spine will do. As some of the exercises
involve rolling back or pressing your spine into the mat, you
will want to make sure you are not going to work out on a surface
hard enough to bruise or injure your vertebrae.
Core Pilates
supplies its clients with a sterile mat and props for their use.
Please
Note: It is not recommended that you exercise directly
after eating, when you are sick, or if you are overtired. As the
movements rely upon the utmost concentration in order to be truly
effective, it is important to be clearheaded when doing the exercises.
As with any exercise program, if you are pregnant, injured, or
in any way incapacitated, it is imperative that you get the approval
of your doctor first.
