Why Pilates by Murphys……

Understands the Pilates technique is designed to COMPLIMENT your fitness needs.

  1. Professional athlete: Pilates gives athletes an edge mentally and physically and helps reduce injuries, speeds recovering time, improves range of motion, promotes efficient breathing techniques, and develops a mind-body connection

  2. Fitness enthusiasts: Improves flexibility

    Tight muscles are often responsible for limiting the body's range of motion. This may lead to reduced exercise performance or cause injury. Pilates by its ability to open up the tight muscles of the body helps to improve flexibility

  3. Longevity..a way of life: For those of us who attest to the benefits of Pilates practice, it is much more than an exercise method – it is a way of life – a way to strengthen the mind-body connection. Pilates recognizes the fusion of the mind and body based on the reawakening of dormant muscle and brain cells
