Bring a Friend and Save! We Offer Duets!

Hanging with like-minded friends is healthy when they are too.
CNN article:
Who you know influences how you behave, a growing body of research is showing. Networks of people who know each other can spread the good (happiness) and the bad (obesity, STDs and loneliness). But it’s not just any social network that propagates behaviors and diseases. New research published in the journal Science suggests that having social network contacts of similar gender, weight and body-mass index could help people pick up on healthy behaviors. Read More…

Nutrition Coming to Flo Pilates!

Meet our soon to be Health Coach!

Hi everyone! My name is Kelsey Rotunno and I have some exciting news!  I am beginning a new business as a Health Coach.  I will be working with people on how to reach their health goals, including stress reductions, increasing energy, losing weight and improving their confidence.  I’ll accomplish this by supporting them with their food and lifestyle choices.

I have always had an interest in health and nutrition and enjoyed sharing this knowledge with my friends, colleagues and family.  I decided to increase this knowledge and learn, in a formal training program, how to live a better life through eating well and taking care of myself.  I am currently enrolled at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.  I am learning to improve my life, and am receiving very detailed and careful instruction on how to coach others around food and lifestyle choices.  It’s an exciting time!

I look forward to sharing more with you about my new career path, and all of the benefits of this work.  I’ll be inviting people to health consultations in the near future, to have the opportunity to support them to create a happier, healthier and more fulfilling life.  I’ll be in touch periodically to let you know how my training is progressing.

I appreciate being able to share this with you. I hope you are well, and I wish you a great day!  I look forward to talking with you soon.

Kindest Regards,
Kelsey Rotunno

Reform Your Workout

Wondering what this contraption is?  It’s a Pilates Reformer!

The Reformer is one of many exercise equipments created by Joseph Pilates.  He designed them to assist and resist his students through ranges of motion and to get them strong enough so they could do the Pilates Mat work successfully.  The reformer is made up of springs and pulleys to help guide your body through the correct movement of the exercises.  It has a sliding platform attached with springs at one end and it can be moved by pulling on ropes or pushing off from a stationary foot bar.

Why choose the Reformer?

It may produce quicker results!  Arms, legs and core muscles can looks firmer and defined.  The resistance produced by the pulley and spring system can provide one with a challenging strength and endurance workout.  Unlike mat classes, the reformers are used for privates or duets, which can provide you with the most individualized attention throughout your whole workout.

If you’re interested in trying out this machine, don’t be shy! Call the studio or stop by today for more information on private/duet availability!

Raw Foods

When people hear raw food the first word that comes to their mind is “diet.”  Eating raw food is not a form of dieting, but really a lifestyle.  The main reason diets don’t work is because they are usually temporary.  When you decide to change your lifestyle is when you will see results.

What is Raw Food?

It is the simplest form of eating.  The raw food lifestyle is based on the belief that the most healthful food for the body is uncooked.  By not cooking your food, it keeps it as a live food, and therefore will help the digestion process and the absorption of key nutrients.  Raw food does not have to be bland or boring, it is what you make of it!

Why Raw Food?

Those who live a raw food lifestyle find that they no longer need the stimulants to get their body to do what it should.  Many people are drinking caffeine to wake their body up, and then taking supplements at night to get the body to rest.  Raw food gives your body the energy to get through the day and efficiently burns that energy so that your body will rest at night.  There are endless benefits to eating raw, such as increased energy, weight loss, clearer skin, pain-free joints, and a boosted immune system, just to name a few.

Will you try the Raw Food Lifestyle?
