Contrology

Contrology is a complete mind- body focused exercise system created by Joseph H. Pilates over 90 years ago. It is a set repertoire of Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced exercises performed either on a mat, or specific equipment using the exact specs Joseph Pilates designed called Gratz equipment.

This equipment uses specific spring- loaded resistance with exercises that stretch and strengthen at the same time, creating long, lean, toned muscles and mobility to last into your golden years. I am proud to offer one on one sessions using Gratz equipment for Cadillac, Reformer, Wunda Chair, Electric Chair and Ladder Barrel workouts.

These exercises are a complete body conditioning system and is also used for many athletes as injury prevention. There are six principles to Contrology; Centering, Concentration, Control, Precision, Breath and Flow, that can’t help but spill over and affect other areas of your life like your daily tasks of chores and play and your mental capacity to handle situations mindfully with grace and ease. It also requires engagement of all 5 faculties of the mind; memory, will, intuition, imagination, perception.

Contrology is appropriate for all ages and level of fitness, and can meet you where you’re at everyday to make it a daily practice! Never have I ever found an exercise regime that completely transformed my own body and lifestyle and has helped every one of my clients once commitment to the practice was made. Starting with group classes will get you strong quickly and give you the foundations to handle the equipment effectively, however starting one on one with equipment would be catered to your needs specifically and dedicated to your physical ability in the moment. Either way, results happen quickly!
