Brisa Pilates, located in Falmouth, is a Pilates studio owned and operated by Brisa, a highly experienced and qualified Pilates instructor. Brisa's passion for fitness and wellness originates from her background in Capoeira, a blend of dance, martial arts, and acrobatics. With over a decade of experience as a fitness instructor, Brisa understands the importance of movement and its impact on the mind-body connexion.
Brisa's journey into Pilates began as a means of managing her own training injuries, specifically back and shoulder pain. In time, she became a dedicated practitioner and eventually pursued formal training to become a professional instructor. Brisa is a certified STOTT PILATES Matwork instructor and a member of the “Registered Exercise Professionals” and qualified Pilates Matwork instructor Level 3 with YMCAfit.
Pilates, as Brisa explains, is a method of exercise that focuses on improving posture, mobility, and core strength and stability. Through conscious breathing and heightened awareness, Pilates not only enhances physical fitness but also promotes relaxation of the body and mind. With the objective of restoring the spine's natural curvatures and aligning joints and muscles optimally, Pilates is renowned for its effectiveness in supporting individuals with back injuries, back and neck pain, and post-natal and rehabilitation patients.
At Brisa Pilates, the studio utilises the contemporary approach of STOTT PILATES, which builds upon the foundations established by Joseph Pilates. By incorporating a wide range of equipment and exercises, Brisa is able to cater to various fitness levels and individual needs. The exercise sessions at the studio aim to improve posture, promote injury prevention, manage stress and back pain, enhance coordination and balance, and increase body and mind awareness. Additionally, Pilates sessions at Brisa Pilates focus on improving breathing capacity, as Joseph Pilates once famously said, “You are only as young as your spine is flexible.
