Franklin Method Meets Pilates at the Santa Clarita Ballet
About Core Kinetics
Core Kinetics integrates the philosophies and teachings of Eric Franklin, and exercises from the Pilates repertoire. Students can learn the work in Group Mat Classes or Private Reformer Sessions.
What is the Franklin Method?
The Franklin Method is like an owner’s manual for your body. It is not an exercise program but a fun and playful way to learn about and experience your body’s design and function. Would you like to move without pain, repair an injury or improve performance? The Franklin Method uncovers the body’s ingenious design for optimum function and efficiency. Greater efficiency means less wear and tear on the body and ultimately more enjoyment of your body. The Franklin Method is on the cutting edge of movement training, synthesizing the disciplines of western and eastern science, sports psychology and imagery. The applications are limitless and it can be practiced at any level of fitness.
What is Pilates?
Joseph H. Pilates, (pronounced puh-lah-tees), developed a form of exercise in the late 1920’s that utilizes some of the principles of yoga and weight lifting to promote strength and flexibility, tone without bulk, and most importantly balance and function. Exercises can be performed in mat classes or using the spring resistance of equipment such as the Reformer.
