I’m taking a poll for interest in a WORKSHOP FOR GOLFERS?

Are you a golfer interested in learning simple exercises that you can even do on the golf course?

The key is balancing the regions of the spine with the hips for better torque.

Pilates can help golfers
⛳️Improve posture
⛳️ Enhance swing mechanics
⛳️Build the strength and control needed to hit the ball straighter, harder, and farther.

In addition Pilates can help reduce the risk of common golf-related injuries, especially in the low back, elbows, and wrists.

Happy Pilates Day! 🤍

Today, we celebrate the legendary Joseph Pilates and his methodology, originally called Contrology, now known as Pilates.

Joseph once said, “The whole country, the whole world, should be doing my exercises. They’d be happier.”

This is the main reason that I studied to become a Certified Pilates Teacher 20 years ago, and continue my professional development at Body Harmonics Pilates in Toronto... I could see the potential and the difference practicing Pilates could make in everyone's life, no matter their ability.

Pilates is for EVERY BODY.
