Unlike conventional workouts that create overuse and bulk, Pilates will lengthen and strengthen the muscles, increasing elasticity and mobility. Creating balance in the musculature will keep you looking, feeling, and moving at your best. LSF combines the principles of Pilates with unconventional exercises and stretching to deliver a unique and modern approach. Recruiting smaller, often-neglected muscles and releasing heavily facilitated muscles that are creating dysfunctional movement patterns.
Smaller class size and top of the line equipment allows us to deliver the best workout you have never tried. Instructors are highly skilled in various areas of kinesiology, including Physical Therapy, Functional Range Systems, Therapeutic Specialist, and Neurokinetic Therapy. We bring everything to the table to deliver a comprehensive session, tailored to your needs.
