Pilates is a system of controlled exercises that engage the mind and condition the body. A blend of strength and flexibility training improves posture, reduces stress, and creates long, lean muscles. This class is a blend of Pilates and other somatic practices designed to make you feel and look longer, stronger, and more in tune with your body. #MovewithJam on Monday mornings to start your week off feeling wonderful!
