You may have certain health or fitness concerns that when you were younger would not have even crossed your mind. Pilates addresses these concerns, for example flexibility & mobility issues, and taking positive action to improve them.
This takes into consideration many different concerns that face almost everyone as they get older, for example:
Joint instability
Postural problems
Circulation problems
Breathing difficulties
Balance & weight distribution
Urinary incontinence
The good news is that Pilates can help with any of these and more. We run classes with young at heart people in their 70s and 80s regularly attending. From experience, people have told me that they gain the following results from regularly attending a Pilates class:
Increased mobility
Become more flexible
Feel more confident and independent
Able to perform daily tasks easier
Improve their own body awareness
Pilates helps you look after your body as you get older
