About Pilates – the 6 Pilates Principles
Pilates classes aim to improve the body’s alignment and efficiency by focusing on six principles.
• Breath Control
• Correct Head & Neck Placement
• Scapular Stability
• Ribcage Placement
• Pelvic Stability
• Core Activation
Pilates is a slow, controlled technique designed to improve body awareness. The goal is to re-train the body to improve posture and safe, efficient movement. Initially, the focus will be on the correct activation of the core stabilisers to the pelvis and scapula. Once you have the principles handled and the basic exercises implemented, you can then progress to more difficult exercises, with movement and resistance added to challenge your control.
The Pilates approach uses CONCENTRATION, FLOWING MOVEMENTS, ISOLATION, CONTROL, CENTERING, PRECISION, and routine. WHILST FOCUSING ON THE ABOVE, TRANSFORMING YOUR BODY INSIDE AND OUT
Breath Control
Breathing in through your nose and out through pursed lips. Research has shown that breathing out through pursed lips helps activate your deeper torso muscles (transverse). Our breath is vast and full when our abdominal muscles are activated correctly. We breathe laterally, expanding the ribs to the side and rear while preventing the ribs from ‘popping’ forward. The correct breath is then utilised with each movement. Which will promote the efficient performance of each exercise?
Correct head and neck placement
Slumping over computers, picking up the kids and carrying out many daily activities can lead to your head jutting forward, creating discomfort in the neck. Pilates training aims to re-align your head and neck, reducing stress and pain in the upper spine. Ensure your head and neck are straight as an extension of your spine.
Scapula (shoulder blade) stability
Re-training various muscles in the upper back to ensure the correct placement of your shoulder blades will promote improved posture. It will also create a robust and stable foundation from which to initiate movements of the limbs and torso. Your push-ups, shoulder presses and rows will all become safer, stronger and more efficient. (Shoulders are relaxed, back and down, forming a soft V with your scapula—so no shoulders near your ears).
Ribcage placement
The proper control for the ribcage will ensure your mid-spine posture is correct. You can perform lateral breathing if you have the correct rib placement. Proper breathing will allow you to perfect your movements. We will help you find the connection between your ribs and pelvis required to support your back—no popping or sticking out of your ribs, keeping the rib-to-hip connection through all exercises.
