The Pilates method is a brilliantly constructed system of body conditioning that utilizes and challenges the body’s full range of motion. Performed as a full system of mat and apparatus exercises or on the mat alone, the method is deep in its syllabus progressing from beginner to super advanced levels.
Pilates is safe and effective for all populations from the deconditioned; those in post- rehab from an injury or with physical limitations; the weekend warrior and all the way to the top of the line athlete. (A large number of professional sports teams employ a certified Pilates instructor.) Correct and vigorous Pilates practice can lead to astonishing results in a short period of time.
Absolute Pilates offers private equipment-based sessions in a sunny, serene room furnished with a Reformer, a Cadillac wall unit and a Wunda chair. A separate mat room for group classes features mirrors, a sprung floor and Pilates props like big and small balls, therabands, magic circles and foam rollers.
Absolute Pilates is conveniently located in South Burlington between Williston Road and Kimball Avenue and tucked into the Espire Personal Training Studio-- a lovely, light and plant filled space fully equipped with cardio and strength training equipment.
