	Thank you Parkland Pilates of Coral Springs. I now look my best ever in my bunny costume!!
"As a Playboy Playmate, I have to look my best in promotional appearances. I got a wonderful booking for a red carpet event but was given the ultimatum, 'Look your very best or no more bookings!' I had to act fast and get in shape to wear my 'bunny bikini.' I did my research and luckily found a Pilates studio in Coral Springs that offered the highest quality of Pilates instruction in South Florida. I chose Fran Perel, owner of Parkland Pilates of Coral Springs because she has so much Pilates teaching experience and Pilates certifications. I knew doing Pilates classes would be my life saver and it would be worth the one hour ride to do Pilates in Coral Springs daily. I was able to get lean and toned in only one month of Pilates classes. Parkland Pilates of Coral Springs has the most variety of Pilates classes in Coral Springs and at so many convenient times, I was able to do a combination of Pilates mat, Pilates sculpt and Pilates equipment classes 5 days a week. Not only that, I found that I had a fabulous new rear, all muscle, that I didn't have before! Fran Perel makes Pilates classes so much fun; she makes you work and still laugh and is so motivating! She always changes up the Pilates exercises, no more routine workouts at the gym! Oh yes, before I forget, I got maximum attention in small group Pilates classes and at the most amazing lowest price in Coral Springs or anywhere else in the South Florida area. I also gained an inch in height thanks to my better posture and stretching from Pilates. Thank you Parkland Pilates of Coral Springs and Fran Perel. I now look my best ever in my bunny costume!!"

	I lost 77 pounds and 56 inches with Pilatesculpt®!
"A year ago I weighed a frightening 220 pounds, had no energy and became winded after little exertion. I was disgusted with myself and decided that I needed to make a change in my life. I began a weight loss program and was on my way to a healthier life style. I knew that I would need to begin exercising to reach my goals. I joined a fitness program where I built stamina and lost several inches and pounds. However, after 6 months of working out 5 times a week, I realized I was not seeing the results that I wanted to see. What I was doing and the amount of time and effort I was spending was not bringing me the results I wanted. I had seen Parkland Pilates while driving up and down Wiles Road in Coral Springs. After a few private workout sessions I joined Pilatesculpt® classes and have seen the most amazing results. I'm stronger, more toned and have more energy than I've had in years. Thanks to Pilatesculpt®, over the last year I've lost 77 pounds and 56 inches, including 17 inches from my waist. I've gone from a size 20 to a size 10. Thank you Fran for your training and encouragement!" Lori Richardson

		Kira Levy achieved her goals with Pilatesculpt®
"After two children and many pounds left on to show for it, I made the decision to go on a diet and exercise program. I started dieting March 2004 and called Parkland Pilates that summer. Over the next few months with both the dieting and Pilates, I had lost 50 pounds! Pilates has really helped me with my weight and helped me to lose throughout my body. I feel tone and muscular in all the right places. Pilates is now a part of my weekly routine and I love it! THANK YOU SO MUCH PARKLAND PILATES!!!!" Kira Levy Mother of Two back to top

What is Pilatesculpt®?

Our Pilates exercises are based on the principle that you must strengthen and stabilize your center or core while you mobilize the peripheral parts of the body (meaning moving your arms and legs). Pilatesculpt^® was developed and trademarked by Fran Perel with the understanding that the center or the core should be the source or initiation of movement. In doing a shoulder press, for example, the strength to lift the weight comes not only from the shoulder muscles. The energy to lift the weight is initiated from the core as all the principles of Pilates, including breathing, are applied to the movement.

Pilates is one of the best workouts to give you the longest, leanest body and sleekest abs ever. Body Sculpting with light weights and other assorted apparatus creates unparalleled muscle tone and definition.

Pilatesculpt^® takes a completely unique approach to body conditioning. This skillful combination, blending Pilates with Body Sculpting into a one-of-a-kind workout is designed to tone and tighten each and every muscle in your body. Pilatesculpt^® makes the most of your time and delivers maximum results. This unique mix is a shortcut to your ultimate, longest, leanest and tightest body ever.

The truth of the matter is that Pilates cannot do it all. There is no question that Pilates exercise is outstanding for building a strong core, increasing flexibility and creating long, lean and toned muscles; however, the studies show that as we age, among other things, we lose muscle mass and bone density, and our metabolism begins to slow down. The good news is that there are certain determinants of aging we can control and/or slow down. That's where Pilatesculpt^® comes in. Pilates can help you increase balance and flexibility. As opposed to shrinking in height as one ages, Pilates can help you maintain, if not even gain in height. Your spine will be aligned, lengthened and strengthened. Strength training and Body Sculpting exercises are crucial to weight control because individuals who have more muscle mass have a higher metabolic rate. Muscle is active tissue that consumes calories while stored fat uses very little energy. Strength training can provide up to a 15% increase in metabolic rate, which is enormously helpful in weight loss. Results conducted from a study at Tufts University, which were published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, showed that strength training greatly increases bone density.

Both Pilates and Body Sculpting strength training can lead to a healthy state of mind. Pilates is a mind-body form of exercise. The more you can link your mind to your body, the better your performance will be. Not only that, the more you concentrate on your workout and not your problems, the more refreshed and relaxed you will feel as a result. Strength training provides similar improvements in depression as anti-depressant medications. People feel better when they are stronger and strength training produces helpful biochemical changes in the brain. The combination of the benefits of Pilates and strengthening muscle through Body Sculpting will improve self-confidence, self-esteem and overall quality of life.
