A total body workout that is fun, fat-burning, and core strengthening, all in one.
Enjoy the cardiovascular and health benefits of rebounding combined with the core-strengthening and aligning benefits of Pilates!
Developed by Pilates on Fifth in Manhattan, CARDIOLATES® was inspired by the need for a method of cardio that reinforces Pilates’ alignment principles and optimal posture, which typical cardio often derails (think about how many people you see jogging with slumped shoulders). Because rebounding combines the forces of acceleration, deceleration and gravity, it strengthens every cell in your body. So, they thought, by rebounding with careful attention to alignment and posture, every cell of the body can be strengthened in the body's optimal alignment! The CARDIOLATES® rebounding technique focuses on maintaining the body's vertical axis and thus strengthens the deep postural muscles in the body's ideal upright alignment.
Most importantly... rebounding with CARDIOLATES® is fun! Children know this instinctively and bounce whenever they have the chance. "Bouncing" is naturally stimulating - we bounce babies in our arms, toddlers on our knees, and most of us loved trampolines (or beds!) through our youth. Rebounding is a healthy and exhilarating way to feel revitalized and get fit.
At Core Pilates on 17th, CARDIOLATES® is offered as a key component of our Cardio-Chair classes and Jumpboard-Chair classes. These Group Equipment classes offer a combination of the lean muscle sculpting of the Pilates Chair and the low impact cardio of Rebounding to give you a fun and truly balanced workout. Classes are limited to 5 participants. Check the schedule for current offerings.
Want to try CARDIOLATES®, but prefer private or semi-private sessions? If you stuido has a rebounder ask your instructor to incorporate some "bounce" into your next workout.
