About Us!

Symmetrical Energy Arts, Inc (SEA) Pilates and General Movement Studio is located at 37 Centre Ave., Topton, PA.

The intention of SEA is to offer an alternative means to wellness through movement. Movement is essential to life, and learning more effective movement patterns is beneficial to every aspect of our lives.

Our preferred foundation of movement is Pilates (derived from Contrology developed by Joseph H. Pilates.) Pilates is a functional biomechanically sound form of exercise and rehabilitation. 

SEA honors the classical full dynamics of Pilates as a method of Corrective Exercise and also integrates additional movement theories in order to facilitate recognition of different patterns and neuromuscular levels drawing from years of applying and integrating the Wetzig Coordination Patterns. www.moves4greatness.com and its originating investigations spanning over 80 years.

SEA is a supporter and associate of the AIM Academy for Somatic Integration (AASI) and the Amend Integrative Model.

(The Amend Integrative Model is a framework for communication about embodiment and movement practice, in the broad definition sense. AIM was developed, over a period of over ten years, from client and coworker feedback about the pilates-evolved movement practice taught and learned at Bodies MindŽ Studio in Mill Valley, CA. Phenomenological consultations were a primary source of support and validation.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thoughts and Ideas:

"Contrology is complete coordination of body, mind, and spirit. Contrology develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind, and elevates the spirit."- Joseph Pilates

Pilates believed that the natural grace, vigor, and normal physical development we enjoy as children is lost as we mature due to our over-worked, under-nourished lifestyles, and a result of not having a uniformly developed musculature. He believed that Contrology could return us to the qualities of youth through persistence and practice of a method of physical conditioning that leaves the body feeling revitalized, not tired and sore.
