Pilates is a physical fitness system developed in the early 20th century by Joseph Pilates. He called his method “Contrology” because he believed his method uses the mind to control the muscles. The program focuses on the core postural muscles which help keep the body balanced and which are essential to providing support for the spine. In particular, Pilates exercises teach awareness of breath and alignment of the spine, and aim to strengthen the deep torso muscles. Pilates improves mental and physical well-being, increases flexibility and strengthens muscles. Through controlled movements done on a mat with a flex ball or Pilates ring, these 50-minute classes will tone and strengthen from head to toe – a kick-start to your day!
The ultimate Caribbean vacation experience begins at the intimate, 2-story boutique resort located on the shores of majestic Eagle Beach, an ideal place for romantic and rejuvenating getaways.
