Importance of Flow in Pilates


Listen Later

"Flow is a state in which people are so involved in an activity that nothing else seems to matter." -Katie Crane

In this episode of The Pilates Lounge, host Katie Crane explores the transformative power of the sixth Pilates principle – flow.

Defined as a state of complete immersion, flow in Pilates involves integrating foundational principles like breath, centering, concentration, control, and precision.

Drawing from personal experiences in surfing and the research of psychologist Mihaly, Katie illustrates the parallels between finding flow in various activities and within the Pilates practice.

Beyond productivity, achieving flow in Pilates leads to heightened muscle control, seamless exercise transitions, and a profound connection with the body.
