PHED 139 Pilates
An effective method of conditioning. Pilates are unique in that it would enable students to accomplish movements in a gravity-reduced setting, allowing them to isolate core muscles. The exercises and techniques designed by Joseph Pilates work collectively to create balance (alignment), improve range of motion (function), and a longer, leaner, pleasing look for the body. Rationale: this course will complement other physical education courses by enhancing coordination, balance, agility, and joint stability. Course fee required.
