WHAT IS THIS PROGRAM ALL ABOUT?

Pre-habilitation training is a term used to describe a type of training that aims to reduce the risk of injury and also prevent an injury from occurring. This program aims to assist gymnasts to develop muscular control, increase joint range of motion and acquire sound movement patterns.

So, how does this relate to Pilates…as gymnasts, you are required to learn new skills quickly and have the ability to make small adjustments to perfect elements, which means you require a high level of body awareness. In Aerobic Gymnastics we place excessive load through our bodies and joints and often perform repetitive movements. The practice of Pilates enables learning of safe body postures for movement and functional movement patterns that translate to the training environment.
