Gyrotonic® & Pilates Classes at The Beach & Tennis Club
The Studio at The Beach & Tennis Club offers general conditioning and sports specific training through personal instruction in Pilates and the Gyrotonic Expansion System.
Pilates exercises teach awareness of neutral alignment of the spine and strengthening of the deep postural muscles that support this alignment. Pilates emphasizes joint stability and core strength through a series of controlled linear movements.
Gyrotonic movements emphasize articulation of the joints and mobilization of the pelvis, spine, and shoulder girdle in a circular movement pattern. The uniqueness of the system is that it simultaneously stretches and strengthens the body with minimal effort, while increasing range of motion and developing coordination.

Benefits of Pilates
Pilates offers a refreshing mind-body workout to help develop a strong core, gain long, lean muscles and flexibility in a gentle, yet challenging and effective way. Pilates helps create an evenly conditioned body, improve sports performance and prevent injuries.
Tennis
Assisting with timing, rhythm and proper muscle toning, Pilates improves balance and power throughout your swing.
Swimming
Pilates helps muscles fire correctly, leading to more fluid movement while swimming. It also helps with proper mind-body control, leading to a steadier and faster pace without wear and tear.
Golf
Pilates builds back muscles and strengthens the abdominal muscles to increase overall flexibility and balance. It also increases range of motion in your hips and shoulders.
Running
Pilates helps runners elongate and align their spine for better stability. The diaphragm expands, and overall flexibility, strength and balance is increased.
