We focus on not just core but appropriate stretching and posture which proves very successful in allowing them to live pain free as they go about their daily lives. Functional movement through Pilates has helped clients do simple things without pain such as picking up grand kids and working in the garden. Focus on balance had one client walk the Acropolis on vacation without fear of falling. These might seem like small things, but in life they are everything. Some of our clients with osteoporosis have increased their bone density over time. While that isn’t possible for everyone we continue to build strength and balance while improving postural alignment. Our clients who do the advanced Pilates work know our focus is to break down and build up the exercises in a way that is unique to their bodies so that they get the most out of each exercise. This allows them to work through the full system of exercises with complete control. https://www.lavie-pilates.com/instructor daily 0.75 2025-05-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6127d1f11b8332798141a1f0/1633030734455-EY1FDTVZHGQQSUNXXZ7R/Bethany-freed-2.jpg Instructor - Bethany Freed Tobias Keene, D.D.S.
