PLAYITAS SPORT RESORT

FUERTEVENTURA, SPAIN

5 nights (6 day) 13 - 18 June 2024

Imagine yourself in a picturesque coastal destination, where the warm sun caresses your skin, and the gentle breeze carries the enchanting melodies of Latin music. Your days begin with energising sunrise yoga sessions, where you greet the day with a series of flowing postures, synchronised with your breath. As you move through each pose, you feel an awakening in your body, stretching and strengthening your muscles, while simultaneously finding inner balance and tranquility.

After a nourishing breakfast, you venture into the world of salsa dancing, guided by skilled instructors who have mastered the art of this passionate dance. The rhythmic beats fill the air as you immerse yourself in the exhilarating steps and sensuous movements of salsa. From basic footwork to intricate partner sequences, you dance with grace and confidence, allowing the music to guide your every move. The vibrant energy of salsa ignites your spirit, creating a sense of joy and connection with both yourself and your fellow dancers.

As the sun reaches its zenith, you transition to the tranquil realm of Pilates. In a serene studio overlooking the ocean, you engage in a series of controlled and precise movements that target deep core muscles, promoting strength, flexibility, and alignment. Through Pilates, you develop a heightened body awareness, as you focus on proper breathing, posture, and fluid movement. With each Pilates session, you feel your body becoming more toned, balanced, and resilient, enhancing your overall physical well-being.

In the late afternoon, you have the opportunity to relax and rejuvenate amidst the natural beauty of your surroundings. Whether it's lounging by the pool, strolling along the beach, or indulging in a soothing spa treatment, you take time to embrace the serenity and indulge in self-care. These moments of rest allow you to integrate the physical and mental benefits of your activities, ensuring a holistic and transformative experience.

In the evening, the rhythm of salsa beckons you once again. You find yourself immersed in the vibrant nightlife, where the dance floor becomes your playground. Surrounded by a vibrant community of fellow dancers, you dance the night away, allowing the passion and energy of salsa to ignite your spirit. The music pulsates through your veins as you surrender to the joy of movement, feeling alive and free in the present moment.

Urban Pilates and 100 Percent Pilates

Carroll Locke – Urban Pilates was created 21 years ago. Sessions emphasise the mind-body connection. It uses classic Pilates exercises and adds a twist or an urban beat for variation. It uses concentration for mental focus on the movements and body sensations to better engage and connect with your bodies during the exercises. Coordinating breath with movement helps deepen the mind-body connection and enhances the flow and efficiency of the exercises. The exercises involve paying close attention to body alignment, posture, and muscle engagement to help individuals develop a deeper understanding of their own movement patterns and make necessary adjustments for optimal alignment and function.

Urban Pilates focuses on strengthening the core muscles, which include the abdominals, back, and pelvic floor. A strong core provides stability, improves posture, and supports overall body strength and control. It increases flexibility and body awareness: developing a greater range of motion, making everyday movements easier and reducing the risk of injuries. It improves posture and alignment: helps correct imbalances, promotes good posture, and reduces strain on the spine and joints. Overall, Urban Pilates offers a balanced approach, combining strength, flexibility, and mind-body connection. It can be beneficial for individuals of all fitness levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners.

Natalie Bethune – 100 Percent Pilates is the brainchild of Natalie’s 12 years as a Classical Pilates practitioner and teacher. What’s Classical Pilates I hear you cry? This method sticks closely to the true teachings of Joseph Pilates- the founder of the Pilates method. Did you know Joseph designed the method for Men – specifically Athletes? Pilates is for everyone!
