We kindly request that you complete our Liability Release form prior to your first class or session.
We look forward to seeing you!
Joseph Pilates stated: “Physical fitness is the attainment and maintenance of a uniformly developed body with a sound mind, fully capable of naturally, easily and satisfactorily performing our many and varied daily tasks with spontaneous zest and pleasure.”
The mat work is the original movement system that Joseph Pilates created and is just as effective as the work done on the equipment and can be done anywhere anytime, However, having a trained eye on your form and alignment and utilizing the specialized equipment which is designed to facilitate what your own body cant yet do, is what will take a client to the next level and most desirable results!
Overall, the Pilates Method of movement is a system of exercises that are designed to build strength as it lengthens muscles. There is never any stress on the joints, though the muscles and joints are worked through their full range of motion. Each exercise focuses on relaxation, concentration, coordination, centering, alignment, breathing, stamina, and flowing movement.
Pilates believed that if practiced daily, a uniformly developed body would be achieved. This refers to when the smaller, intrinsic muscles are turned on and the dominant larger muscles become secondary muscles to create a balance of forces at the joint level. This allows the breath to pass through all the tissue without blockage and restores equilibrium and suppleness to the spine.
ITS MANY BENEFITS INCLUDE:
– INCREASED LUNG CAPACITY
– STRENGTH AND FLEXIBILITY (PARTICULARLY THE ABDOMINALS AND THE BACK MUSCLES)
– MUSCULAR AND MENTAL COORDINATION
– IMPROVED POSTURE, BALANCE, BONE DENSITY, AND JOINT HEALTH
– BETTER OVERALL HEALTH & WELL BEING
WHO’S TEACHING?
Angel Maffei
Angel is a Massachusetts native that describes herself as a “diehard fitness enthusiast”. Angel has been active throughout her life in the fields of martial arts, kickboxing, cycling, aerobics, yoga and more.
In 1990 she moved to southern California and became certified as a personal trainer and spinning instructor. She taught classes while she continued her higher education studying Spanish both abroad and in California. Angel worked after that as a Medical office manager in Marina Del Rey for many years. During that time she realized that the busy pace and stress of the corporate world was not for her, though she had the good fortune of being introduced to a whole world of Holistic medicine & practices while working with incredible Board Certified Internists who also incorporated Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture, massage, ayurveda & transcendental meditation.
Angel began taking Pilates privately and was loving it more than anything she had ever done before. To her, this became the “end all, be all”. It was a discipline that was not only physically demanding, but mentally challenging as well. This seemed to be the perfect fit.
Angel received her certification to teach Pilates through the acclaimed ‘Pilates Center’ in Boulder Colorado in 2001. She is a PMA certified instructor and continues her Pilates studies through continuing education as well as her devout practice of yoga. Angel opened The Center…by the sea in September of 2008. She has owned & operated PILATESANGEL in Hermosa Beach subsequently for over 12 years. Angel graduated from The Institute of Integrative Nutrition In 2020 as an integrative nutrition health coach.
She believes that through these methods she can help clients to become better in tune with their bodies on all levels and to promote better overall balance and well-being.
