Executive Conversation Builds Stronger Employees with Conscious Body Pilates Classes
Seattle, WA, September 18, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Executive Conversation is investing in employee wellness with classes at Conscious Body Pilates, a chain of Seattle personal fitness studios. Under the guidance of a certified Pilates instructor, and using specialized Pilates equipment, Executive Conversation employees are building core strength, balance, and team morale in a Group Reformer class at Conscious Body Pilates’ Madrona location.
Seattle-based Executive Conversation offers training programs to improve the performance of sales organizations at large and mid-size corporations around the world. “Our clients make an investment in their employees to improve business performance and promote a positive employee experience. We share that philosophy in the way we support our own employees,” said Suzanne Sheppard, Co-founder and CEO of Executive Conversation. “Our employees enjoy the workouts and team building at Conscious Body Pilates, and a strong team delivers solid results.”
Pilates is a physical fitness system developed in the early 20th century by Joseph Pilates in Germany. The program focuses on the core postural muscles which help keep the body balanced and which are essential to providing support for the spine. In particular, Pilates exercises teach awareness of breath and alignment of the spine, and aim to strengthen the deep torso muscles. Research published in 2005 by the American College of Sports Medicine supports the practice of Pilates to achieve health benefits such as improved flexibility, increased abdominal, oblique, and leg strength, and improved muscle endurance.
“Pilates exercise is uniquely suited to address the most common side-effects of the modern workplace,” said Heather Scearce, co-owner of Conscious Body Pilates. “Pilates strengthens the core and increases spinal mobility, which is difficult to achieve in jobs that require us to sit or stand still for extended periods of time. Within 30 days of starting a Pilates routine, our students report improved posture, decreased pain and stiffness, and heightened energy levels. Progressive companies like Executive Conversation realize that investments in employee wellness are ultimately paid off in improved business performance.”
Conscious Body Pilates offers group mat class packages starting at $12 per hour and private instruction packages starting at $60 per hour at its Seattle locations.
