Pilates at the Court Club

The Pilates method of body conditioning is a unique system of stretching exercises.  It strengthens and tones muscles, improves posture, provides flexibility and balance, unites body and mind, and creates a more streamlined shape.  Pilates combines elements of gymnastics, yoga, dance, self-defense, and resistance/weight training.  The focus on the quality of movements will bring you deep results.  Anyone can do Pilates-women, men, young, old, healthy or out of shape.  It’s a lengthening and strengthening of your body without bulking up muscles.  It improves your posture and alignment, and it emphasizes working small muscle groups that are underneath, supporting your large muscle groups.

CLASS TIMES: Mondays at 5:00 PM, Tuesdays at 6:45 PM, Thursdays at 5:00 PM, and Fridays at 6:45 AM.  First time visitors, including non-members, may attend the class for free.

Yoga

The Court Club offers a variety of Yoga Classes:

Ashtanga Yoga combines a precise sequence of postures with deep breathing in a flowing style.  This method of yoga involves synchronizing the breath with progressive series of postures—a process producing intense internal heat and a profuse, purifying sweat that detoxifies muscles and organs. The result is improved circulation, a light and strong body, and a calm mind.

CLASS TIMES: Tuesdays, Beginner Class at 5:30 PM-6:30 PM
First time visitors, including non-members, may attend the class for free.

Wednesdays, Intermediate, Advanced Class at 5:00 PM-6:45 PM
First time visitors, including non-members, may attend the class for free.

Iyengar Yoga focuses on precise skeletal alignment and proper muscular action in a slow to moderate pace.  This class is appropriate for all levels.  Modifications of poses are offered and props are used to assist in performing the poses.

CLASS TIMES: Thursdays at 6:00 PM

Hatha Yoga is a gentle form of Yoga that involves deep breathing while in a state of relaxation and stretching of the body in various positions.
