Breathing - the hidden power of Pilates

In Pilates, breathing plays a central role. When you breathe consciously, the deep abdominal muscles, diaphragm and pelvic floor are activated - muscles that together create stability in all exercises. This means you not only move more controlled, but also more efficiently.

Correct breathing helps you release tension in the shoulders and neck and gives the body a natural flow in the exercises. At the same time, it ensures that you use your muscles correctly - and minimises the risk of strain.

At Pilates Søborg, we teach you to work actively with your breathing and combine it with movement to get the most out of your workout. Many find that it gives noticeable results in strength and body control - and at the same time more energy and peace in everyday life.
