STEP AEROBIC
STEP AEROBIC
​
Step aerobics is a choreographed routine of stepping up and down on a rectangular, square, or circular platform (or, in the case of BOSU, a domed, flexible apparatus).
Step aerobics, as the name suggests, is a great form of aerobic exercise. That means that it's a good cardiovascular exercise and helps to benefit your health in general. Cardio helps regulate your blood flow and keeps your heart strong and healthy enough to make everyday life safe and easy, as well as making other forms of exercise easier too as your cardiovascular fitness increases.
This has a huge effect on the body and a whole range of health benefits outside of the heart as well too, like making your lungs more efficient and giving you more stamina, into the more common goals of losing fat and burning excess calories. It reduces the risk of heart disease and other health conditions too. Even just performing the exercise to the beat of your favorite song or seeing how many steps you can do in a certain amount of time are good places to start and will help you form a workout.
PILATES
​
Exercises involve the whole body and are performed on spring-assisted apparatus or a mat, sometimes using small equipment.
Pilates is effective as it addresses underlying structural imbalances in the body which can create on-going pain and difficulty with movement. The whole body is considered. Lengthened and strengthened muscles improve posture and overall fitness and retrain dysfunctional movement patterns, restoring optimum physical function. Regardless of age, ability or fitness level, pilates is beneficial for everyone.
Using gravity, breath and spring resistance, Pilates uses whole body movement targeting specific muscle groups to re-educate movement patterns and rebalance the underlying muscular and structural systems in body.
Pilates can help you:
 Improve your posture, health and overall fitness
 Reach specific physical goals and challenge your athletic ability
 Rehabilitate after injury, surgery or illness
 Return your body to movement
 Expand your body awareness
 Develop trust in your body's abilities
 Look better, feel better, live better
 Live a happier, more fulfilling life
Pilates aids in the rehabilitation of many specialized conditions including: Pregnancy, Sports Injuries, Spinal Conditions and Disc Issues, Hip & Knee Replacement, MS, Parkinson's.
Based upon an anatomical understanding of the body's muscular and skeletal systems, the Fit Therapy creates a comprehensive exercise program specific to each client. This ensures sessions are effective in helping clients meet their physical and rehabilitation goals.

About Pilates Live
Pilates Live is about making Pilates accessible.
Igniting a love of Pilates and a greater understanding for its wider benefits is my ultimate goal. As a trainer I also realized that Pilates may not always be available and I started Pilates live. I do my best to make sure everyone has access to classes from anywhere.
I hope you enjoy these online Pilates classes.
