We recently sat down with Robert to talk about how he found The Pilates Room NYC, how practicing Pilates has helped him with functional fitness and cross training and what advice he has for anyone who is curious about trying Pilates.  

As we age, we lose muscle mass and bone density and experience decreases in balance and flexibility. It can be tough to accept these changes when we notice them creeping into our body and affecting our life, but giving up exercise completely—out of frustration—can accelerate stasis. As humans, we are meant to be mobile. Movement is the currency of health, and once it’s limited, our world becomes smaller. By regularly practicing Pilates, you can maintain (and perhaps even improve!) your range of motion as you age.
