Seattle Powerhouse Pilates

While the Pilates method was first developed to help rehabilitate war veterans, it's become one of the most popular exercise methods in the country today. In addition to people who are rehabilitating injuries, you'll find professional athletes and dancers, celebrities, pregnant women, and others searching for whole-body exercise routine. The key to the Pilates method is its focus on the body's powerhouse. Comprised of those muscles at the core of the body, the powerhouse area includes the abdominal muscles and the lower back muscles.

By strengthening the powerhouse, you'll receive numerous benefits from using the Pilates method. As the powerhouse muscles gain in strength, your posture and stability will improve. From sitting upright in an office chair to lifting groceries and running, these benefits permeate to all aspects of your life.
