Pilates is a superior method of exercise, flexibility and strength. Because of its emphasis on correct positioning for effectiveness, it is always recommended to begin Pilates training with in-person classes under the guidance of a well-trained Pilates teacher. Pilates instructors are specially trained to evaluate and correct body alignment and positioning so that exercises are effective for strength, balance, and flexibility.

After learning the correct positioning with an instructor, however, there are several advantages to continuing your Pilates training and practice with DVDs and other Pilates videos. With videos, you can work out at home whenever your schedule allows. Parents of young children don’t have to miss a workout when they don’t have child care for any reason. They can even work out as their children sleep or play nearby. No more missed workouts when kids are sick or just having a bad day.

Another advantage of at-home workouts is that you can practice the same Pilates exercises and positions over and over again without paying to take the same class repeatedly. DVDs can supplement a once or twice a week class, providing the repetition needed to become proficient and increase your strength. At-home workouts are also great for those areas that don’t have a Pilates studio within a comfortable driving distance.

Pilates Sports Center offers several DVDs, both stand-alone and series, that can provide a quality workout in your home when you can’t get to a studio. Many of these offerings are unique and meet special needs of some part of the Pilates community. DVDs vary in intensity from beginner to advanced, and all demonstrate correct positioning by a trained Pilates instructor. ENJOY 30% OFF OUR DVD DIGITAL DOWNLOAD LIBRARY FOR THE MONTH OF JULY!
