Pilates helps with various aches and pains, especially back pain.

Hence, if you suffer from back pain or are recovering from an injury we can help by taking over from your therapist. Our teachers are qualified in Clinical Pilates which menas that they have the knowledge to help you with exercise recovery.

Pilates is a workout! It is for men and women, to get fit and stay fit. Or to recover from back pain and injury.
Working out on the Mat versus the Pilates Apparatus
How do the apparatus work and why the training should be done using the equipment and not the Mat only.
Joseph Pilates taught all of his students on specialized studio equipment such as the Reformer, the Cadillac or Tower, the Chair, the Barrels, the Pedi-Pole. Although Mat work is fundamental in developing and understanding Pilates, it is only a small part of the training required to achieve the desired benefits of a strong body. With the assistance and resistance of springs, exercises on the different apparatus allow students to achieve fitness goals, a more balanced body and prepare for more advanced exercises.
Every apparatus in our Pilates studio was built to the original specifications of the equipment Joseph Pilates used in his New York studio. Each machine has numerous exercises with varying degrees of resistance and difficulty designed to maximize strength and flexibility for every body. At Play Pilates, no two workouts should ever be experienced in the same way!
Curious as to who manufactures our apparatus:
What kind of workout is Pilates in our Nyon Pilates studio?
We try our best to address your personal needs even in a group setting. Come and try it for yourself, it is the only way to experience Pilates!
The Pilates method is an exercise method that uses springs, several apparatus and bodyweight exercises to develop a really Strong Core and condition the Whole Body. It is a combination of strength, flexibility, control, coordination and balance. It’s also a mental workout because of the intense focus and concentration you need to execute a proper workout. All muscle groups, from big to small, are strengthened in a non-aggressive, non-impact manner making this workout as good for your muscles as it is for your joints. Your spine stays protected, your mind engaged, your balance enhanced, and your energy levels boosted.
Rather than concentrating upon specific areas, Pilates treats the body as a whole.
In the original Classical Pilates method created by Joseph Pilates, there is a sequence to the work, and this sequence builds intelligently with foundational exercises at the beginning and more complex exercises, on more apparatus, as you gain strength, control and balance.
Pilates is ideal for a wide range of people, from frequent exercisers and Sports enthusiasts to beginners to Dynamic Seniors, and for those with injuries. Indeed, our teachers hold a certification in Clinical Pilates.
