Aston® Pilates


"By applying Aston Mechanics to Pilates exercise, I can adapt positioning and movement to best match each client's body pattern. Matching the current pattern creates efficiency and ease of motion resulting in more rapid gains of strength and range of motion. Teaching clients to apply Aston principles such as base of support, optimal alignment and tone, allows them to utilize and maintain changes made in the clinic throughout their daily activities."
- Beth Williams, P.T., G.C.S.
Certified Pilates Instructor and Aston-Patterning Practitioner
