Mind/Body

The connection between a healthy mind and a healthy body is complex, and no one understands that more than our Mind/Body specialists. Our 4 Pillars speak to the interconnectedness of Mindset, Nutrition, Movement, and Recovery: no one pillar stands alone. Mind/Body programs are meant to bring them together in a way that speaks to wellness of the whole person.

At EQT REC Center, we offer:
Yoga

Perhaps the original mind/body exercise, Yoga brings the spiritual element to fitness using ancient techniques designed to help center and focus the practitioner using breath control and specific postures in a meditative setting. Some forms of Yoga move faster than others, but all convey the benefits of heightened mind/body awareness and movement:

Core strength through bodyweight movements
Flexibility through strengthening and focused stretching moves
Stress reduction through whole-body breath awareness

Pilates
Taking controlled and focused movement to the core, Pilates builds body awareness through either mat-based or machine-based workouts that strengthen and add flexibility without bulk. Pilates workouts offer benefits that include:

Better balance and ease of movement
Flexibility and a strong core
Improved posture
Mindfulness of movement

Massage
