Poised® recommends a minimum of two
training sessions per week for realistic results.

The pilates technique has gained national attention the last
8 years. This effective approach was first developed as injury
rehab for professional dancers. As the popularity of pilates
grew, numerous pilates certifications became available, diminishing
the original technique and proficiency of instruction. At
Poised®, all of our trainers have been trained in the
Stott Pilates technique, the industry recognized leader in
pilates. In addition, all Poised® trainers have a minimum
of 1 year of experience and most have been training for more
than five years.
Pilates is a method of movement patterns that challenge the
entire body to use the deep layer musculature, thus creating
a stronger core, better posture, spinal alignment and a sense
of renewed energy and relaxation. This approach is based upon
precision of movement and attention to proper body form. The
pilates breathing is a key tool to using the correct muscles,
increasing flexibility, strength and greater mobility. Although
pilates has been called the gentle yoga, as many
of the movement patterns are similar, pilates instruction
may include various pilates equipment or consist of a mat
and body workout only.

All Poised® training includes the core training approach,
that is, working the body from the inside out. We believe
a strong chest or back cannot remain strong unless the muscles
that lay under are strengthened also. This is accomplished
by constantly challenging the body in ways that allow the
deep muscles to activate. By using equipment such as; the
Bosu, stability balls, tubing, bands, rings and techniques
such as; destabilizing movement patterns, unilateral exercises,
balance challenges, we are able to develop a well toned, efficient
physique.
This is where traditional strength training meets the Poised®
training technique. Poised® incorporates certain elements
of pilates, such as posture and breathing. Our free weights
are ergonomically designed, allowing a better grip so the
muscles can work more effectively. All Poised® strength
training always includes stability, core and flexibility.
We will work in conjunction with your physical therapist to
take you to the next level of your injury or surgery rehab.
Poised® realizes the importance of a consistent training
program those first few weeks following physical therapy rehabilitation.
We have established a working relationship with many physical
therapists and physicians to craft a successful program.
