Pilates
You want to be healthy. You need to be healthy. Therefore you need to add resistance training to your regular routine.
Pilates is the absolute perfect solution for those who don't enjoy the "typical" gym experience.
Pilates is easy on the joints and is the perfect exercise program as you phase out of Physical Therapy following knee, hip or other invasive surgeries.
It was designed to rehabilitate dancers and athletes following injury. Pilates is gentle and fluid.
SAFETY FOR YOU!
Williamsburg Pilates offers private, semi-private and small group classes of no more than 5 participants. PLUS...the studio is set up for appropriate social distancing between the equipment apparatus.
Handicap Parking directly in front of studio. No Stairs.

Pilates for Golf
Pilates is the answer!
"Pilates works on stability, strength, and mobility. By working on strengthening the glutes and core, Pilates can help golfers increase distance with their swing. In working the deepest abdominal and back muscles, golfers are likely to be stronger and minimize pain and injury."

American Physical Therapy Association certified Clinical Instructor
Denise is a retired physical therapist with over 30 years of experience in creating individualized exercise programs for clients with orthopedic, neurological, cardiopulmonary and general medical conditions. She recently completed 500 hours of advanced certification through Club Pilates.
Although Denise enjoys working with anyone who wants to improve their strength, balance and flexibility, she specializes in “pre-habilitative” type exercise programs to help clients prepare their bodies for joint replacement and back surgeries as well as “post-rehabilitative” exercise programs to help clients stay fit after doctor prescribed physical therapy sessions have been completed.
Pain, illness, and injury can cause abnormal movement, posture and breathing patterns that wear on your body. Your body actually has to work harder to move and breathe when you are not aligned properly. This in turn can result in a decreased ability for you to function and enjoy life.
Denise is enthusiastic about helping you to re-educate your body and mind to remember what more natural movement, posture and breathing feels like so your body can function more like it was meant to be.

you can't afford NOT to exercise
Bottom Line.
If you don't make time for your health, you will be forced to make time for your illnesses.
As I have recently learned, once you hit the big 5-0, the check engine light comes on and you find out that your body isn't 21 anymore and that the old adage, "use it or lose it" is actually true.
DON'T LOSE YOUR INDEPENDENCE.
My studio equipment is cleaned and sanitized between every class.
Classes are limited to 4 or 5 participants with plenty of room for social distancing.
The studio is a safe and judgement-free environment, both physically and emotionally.

it's time to get back into shape and be healthy.
Extra weight is a big problem for many people, and this extra weight leads to high blood pressure, heart issues and diabetes.
Walking is great, and you should do this every day. But in addition to this, your exercise routine should include resistance training at least twice a week.
Regular exercise will definitely improve your health and subsequently you won't be afraid to step on the scale or go to the doctor and get your bloodwork.
