Beginners to Pilates, don't underestimate these technical terms! Unfamiliar words, it is easy to keep up with the rhythm of the teacher, thus affecting the quality and effect of the action. Keeping these terms in mind will be very helpful in getting you started!
1."falling ribs" when exhaling, the ribs should sink and adduct, and maintain a position with the pelvis, which helps to better start the core. Note that excessive inversion of the ribs should be avoided during the movement, so as not to cause discomfort in the lower back and waist.
2. "Stretching the spine" is also critical. Imagine a string at the top of the head extending the spine upwards, creating more space for the spine.
3. "Core tightening" is an essential part of Pilates. As the ribs sink, the pelvic floor muscles should be lifted and the transverse abdominal muscles contracted horizontally, so that you will feel a smaller waist.
4. "shoulder sink" this action requires the side of the shoulder blades to sink, so that the shoulders away from the ears, lengthening the neck. This can avoid excessive compensation of the trapezius muscle bundle during the movement, making the movement more smooth and natural.
5.Being neutral is an important principle in Pilates practice. This means that during the exercise, all parts of the body must be kept in the correct position, such as the correct alignment of the lower limbs, the neutral position of the pelvic spine, and the stability of the axis box during the dynamic process.
6.A "stable joint" is a fixed part of the body. The stability and flexibility of the body affect each other, for example, the flexibility of the shoulder joint is based on the stability of the shoulder blade, and the flexibility of the hip joint is based on the stability of the pelvis.
7."Open the thorax." This action requires the collarbone to spread out to the sides, avoiding the shoulder buckle, which can effectively improve the movement of the pump handle of the chest during the inhalation process, so that the breathing is more smooth.
8."spine section by section up/down" is also a key action to improve the flexibility of the spine. By letting the spine roll like a gear, you can better feel the movement of the spine, thereby improving the accuracy and effect of the movement.
9."Confrontation" is also an important concept. Target muscles need to actively exert force, and the body should actively fight against forces, such as its own weight or spring resistance. Therefore, beginners must carefully learn and master these terms and movement essentials! Only in this way can you go further and further on the road of Pilates and enjoy more health and pleasure! Remember to bookmark this knowledge and prepare for Pilates initiation in advance. If you're not white anymore, you're gonna go far on the road to Pilates.
