Alive Pilates (Vevey)

Joseph Pilates was born in Germany in 1880. An avid sportsman, he devoted his life to the study of physical education, developing his own sports concept: Pilates. Inspired by oriental gymnastics for its concentration and fluidity of movement, and by his own sporting practices (boxing, diving, skiing and gymnastics), he created a gentle method of strengthening the deep muscles (also known as postural muscles) of the body.

Pilates is suitable for everyone: men and women (including pregnant women), young and old, sports enthusiasts and the more sedentary.

As your main physical activity, in addition to other sports or rehabilitation methods (many doctors and physiotherapists recommend it), discover the benefits of Pilates for your body: strength, concentration, stability, balance, well-being and pleasure.
