AeroPilates
A lifestyle and body conditioning regime
AeroPilates is a lifestyle and body conditioning regime derived from the original, authentic teachings of Joseph Pilates in the 1920’s. In those days he described his work as Contrology. Today the AeroPilates home studio utilizes apparatus based on his original dimensions, concepts and movements.
Our AeroPilates method not only incorporates all his original strength training and stabilization movements but has integrated an additional component found in the revolutionary vertical trampoline. This trampoline, known as the Cardio Rebounder, provides low impact cardiovascular training to improve heart health and accelerate weight loss. Uniquely AeroPilates now offers a direct route to complete body health and function in one machine.
