Pilates - Power. Purpose. Pilates
Change your body with an effective program that develops core strength, stability, flexibility and mobility.
Are you looking to strengthen your abdominals and pelvis as well as maintain good posture, then Pilates is for you. It also has a strong mind/body connection so it is great for athletes and those who need to improve focus and concentration.
Experience personalized instruction with our best-in-class Pilates coaches as they work to understand your goals and body, and develop the right program for you.
Your first step is the Coach’s assessment, which includes an in-depth medical, injury, and fitness questionnaire, body composition index, movement screen, and postural analysis.
Your coach will evaluate your history and objectives to create your personal roadmap. Since needs, goals and lives change, the conversations between you and your coach will play a vital role in your success. Because at the end of the day, it’s about performing at your peak — while living your ideal life.
“Pilates…..While recognizing age related loss of flexibility and core strength is inevitable, based upon my experience as an orthopedic surgeon of 45 years, reversal of this decline is, at best, extraordinarily difficult. Thus, it came as a total surprise to me how potent Pilates is in mitigating the decline. After only 3 sessions with Nancy Carroll, I was stunned over how much flexibility I recovered, as well as making progress with improving my core strength. It’s no secret that elderly folks who lose core strength which results in instability, suffer serious fall injuries. Nearly 50% of elderly patients who sustain hip fractures experience life ending complications following surgery. I am a firm devotee of Pilates and highly recommend Nancy Carroll as its new age guru.”

Nutrition
We are passionate about what goes into your body. Our goal is to help you know what foods are best so that you lose weight, get energized, stay lean, get stronger and improve your health for life.
Our mission is to help you to perform to the best of your ability, increase your energy, reduce inflammation, reduce pain, so that you increase your quality of life.
We know the food you eat becomes your body’s medicine. The food you eat is like fuel. It gives your body the energy it needs to function optimally. Food affects every aspect of your being: energy, mood, thinking capacity, performance, sleeping habits, weight, digestion and inflammation. Healthy eating is one of our keys to help you accomplish complete well-being.
Our way of eating is based on a new lifestyle with an abundance of healthy foods. “My aim is to help you make simple changes that will begin to take effect immediately and one that will last for life”- Chantal
Our strategy is based on the fundamental principles of eating foods that will help you perform at your very best.
We will individualize your nutrition program so that you may have the energy to be more productive at home and at work.
Great carbohydrates: these are the carbs without the added refined sugar. These healthy carbohydrates contain the naturally occurring sugars that the body can easily and slowly metabolize for balanced brain function and useful energy.
Great proteins: these are the building block of your muscles. Therefore, eating adequate amounts of protein helps you maintain your muscle mass and promotes muscle growth when you do strength training.
Great fats: we focus on the essential fatty acids which help you metabolize fat. These foods contain healthy fats which are necessary for aiding weight reduction, lowering cholesterol, enhancing immunity, nourishing skin, hair, and bone tissue.
Unprocessed foods: these are the foods that have no added chemicals or other additives. We focus you on food in its original state, the way nature grew it.

Are YOU COMMITTED to being STRONGER & SMARTER?
People think they have this illusion of choice. Like I can do whatever I want to do. And you kind of have a generation now that doesn’t always get told no, they don’t always get told this is exactly how you need to do it. So they have this illusion that they have all these choices.”The fact of the matter is, to be great, you really don’t have a lot of choices. Because it takes what it takes. You have to do what you have to do to be successful. So you have to make choices and decisions to have the discipline and focus to the process of what you need to do to accomplish your goals.”

Below are the 4 Phases we will be transitioning you to and from. Get ready to TRANSFORM!
The Athlete: The athlete represents a more ambitious stage of life. This being a stage that we perhaps find ourselves unable to move away from depending on how we progress. It is a much more selfish place to live and from it, you’re only focused on how you are and where you’re headed.
The Warrior: This is a more-so adult phase of our lives and holds a lot of goals within it. We work much harder in this area and are more prepared to dive into battle or get things done so that we can achieve more. Very much like the athlete some people get stuck in this stage as well.
The Steward: This phase in life is much more selfless than the previous ones and is rooted in making this world a better place for others and for those who will be here long after we are gone.
The Spirit: This phase is all about realizing that we are not just human beings but spiritual beings. In this area, our energies as a whole work to shift into a more transformative state and we begin to understand ourselves, others, and the world in a much more loving, joyful, peaceful, and kind way. We finally let go of fear and we accept FAITH.
