Pilates-miniball

International yoga instructor Juliana Afram worked with the Pilates Coach Germany institute to create this holistic program, which aims to strengthen the body and mind. Appropriate for beginners and intermediate students of Pilates, the exercises here combine standard fitness techniques with dance, yoga, breathing methods, and physical therapy. Using the miniball as a tool, PILATES - MINIBALL enables students of Pilates to stretch different parts of the body, while targeting select muscle groups. Building upon basic mat exercises, the program allows students to expand their repertoire of moves, thus increasing the benefits of the discipline, which include increased balance; control over one's body; and a sense of relaxation. Afram clearly outlines all the exercises, illustrating how Pilates can help create a healthy balance between breathing and muscular movements.
