Studio, which specializes in the Pilates Method of exercise, has opened a second South Bay
location in Rolling Hills Estates, in The Village shopping center, next to the library. Nancy Coleman, ShapeShift founder, was asked what makes Pilates Method unique? "When there is an exercise system that can be done by literally any person, old or young, fit or unfit, injured or healthy, pregnant or post-partum, athlete or non-athlete thats special. Most people find the exercise session, which can be done one-on-one or semi-private, pleasant, fun, and educational, with no negative after-affects." Charlotte Hume, Nancys partner, and manager of the new studio, added: "Pilates is an experience of mind-body connection, leading to better posture, stronger, more flexible muscles and increased body awareness." One of the Studios mottos is Take Responsibility for Your Future. |
Nancy explained: "The Method
gives us a way to train you for your future. As we mature, we learn that there are certain
problems inherently associated with the aging process. This does not have to be the case.
Starting Pilates is much like investing money for your retirement. Strong bones, muscles,
and nervous system, good posture, positive attitude, freedom of movement and relief of
stress can be worth a lot because of the improvement to your quality of life." Both Nancy and Charlotte are residents of Palos Verdes. They can be reached at: ShapeShift Studio Palos
