Colleen Craig

Colleen Craig, certified instructor of the Pilates method, in the book Pilates on the ball offers us a unique synthesis of the Pilates method and exercises on the ball.

This new, revolutionary method of training with a ball introduces us to a completely new way of achieving fitness through low-intensity, but extremely effective, exercises. With the Pilates method of exercising on the ball, we balance the body through the development of superficial long muscles, strengthening of weaker deep muscles and working on proper posture, mobility and stability of the spine.

Joseph Pilates, a successful boxer and gymnast, developed a method in the early twentieth century that many reputable lifestyle and fitness magazines claim is the best exercise system of the decade.

Used by famous sports trainers, dancers and athletes to improve body awareness and their own performance, the exercise ball is the perfect base for performing lovely Pilates movements that develop endurance and body flexibility.

In her program, Colleen Craig connects mind and body, presenting breathing and relaxation techniques that accompany working with the ball. Personal stories and inspiring quotes are included in the text, and with them the author shows how Pilates exercises with a ball can improve the quality of our life. An elaborate sequence of exercises allows us to easily monitor our own training and personal progress. Most importantly, the detailed instructions and more than 300 photographs convey Pilates principles and challenge and encourage people of all abilities.

With the help of Pilates exercises on the ball - in a completely new way - you will develop a strong and flexible body and achieve mental stability.
