Pilates is not only an amazing training modality, it is also an incredible tool that can be used to implement wholeness within an individual. The method centers around the breath, bringing about a state of consciousness and present time awareness within the body. This awareness creates a spirit, soul, body connection within a person.

There are several factors that can have an impact on the human personality and demeanor. Genectics, environmental factors, and experiences are the main factors that can have an overall effect on how a person responds and reacts to life. Though we may not have had much to do with the families we were born into giving us our genetic makeup or the environment in which we grew up as a child that had a direct effect on the things we experienced, as adults we have the ability to create healthy environments which can directly effect our experiences and have an impact on our structural DNA.

This mind-body connection is the overall goal in Pilates and therefore requires an environment which is conducive to creating such a state of being.
