New Polson business to host Open House

POLSON — PilatesPlus, a new business on Main Street, is opening its doors to the public for an Open House, Friday November 30 during the downtown Polson Holiday Art Walk from 3-7pm.

PilatesPlus is a health and wellness studio offering private and group Pilates instruction, home and studio based fitness programs as well as therapeutic bodywork like massage and active isolated stretching.

For the Art Walk, PilatesPlus is hosting a plethora of artwork by our community's littlest artists from Cherry Valley Elementary. Debbie Conrad, a harpist is providing holiday music. There are refreshments and a chance to soak up the wonderfully energizing atmosphere at PilatesPlus.

Melinda Leas, the owner, will be on hand to answer questions and converse about health and wellness. There are opportunities for fun fitness give-a-ways from the studio.

PilatesPlus specializes in Pilates, an exercise system focused on improving flexibility and strength for the total body without building bulk. Fundamentally, the Pilates method decompresses the spine and stabilizes the pelvis. Offered in group mat classes or individual privates on the reformer, Pilates enhances physical awareness by emphasizing control and proper body alignment. By addressing strength and flexibility, participants stand taller, feel stronger and achieve ease of motion in many work and recreational activities.

Pilates promotes physical harmony and balance for people of all ages and physical conditions while providing a refreshing and energizing workout.

Because conditioning sessions are done in closely supervised, each session is tailored to specific needs. Regardless of the current level of fitness - from sedentary office worker to fitness enthusiast - Pilates can become an integral part of body conditioning and injury prevention.
