Commit to Change!

It is widely accepted by physiologists that generally it takes about 28 days to change a habit. In Pilates, we are reminded in class or in private sessions of many, many tiny adjustments that need to happen in order to have correct form.  When you have correct form, you are properly exercising and using your core as your powerhouse.  You are not relying on your legs, arms or neck to do the work for you.  This is how we build and strengthen our core and stop over-using muscles like our quadriceps to muscle through motions.
We must accept that with Pilates, your body is a work in progress.  We have great moments when we make a new connection.  “Wow, when I make sure my big toe is in my midline then I can feel how my under-butt is now connected!”  Sometimes it may be frustrating that you can’t seem to quite bend your bones enough to get a pose yet. We’ve all had those moments. Over time, these small adjustments we need to keep reminding ourselves of will eventually become habit and we can advance to the next stage. So keep coming to class, keep your awareness and connection of mind, body, and spirit and you will continue to see great improvements.
Whether you seek improved balance, core strength, lean thighs, a higher butt, less back pain, tight abs, greater flexibility, with Pilates the improvements to your body go on and on!  If you are thinking about starting a Pilates’ plan, what wait?  Spring is just around the corner!  Call Judy today to proactively commit to change your life through Pilates at Easton Pilates!
