At MB Studio Pilates, we know how important it is for our visitors to achieve a flat stomach while preserving their well-being and health. Thanks to the **Pilates method**, obtaining a toned abdominal girdle and a flatter stomach becomes possible, in a progressive, healthy, and sustainable way—without ever falling into the race for instant results or extreme diets.
Pilates: A Method Focused on the Body’s Center
At the heart of the Pilates method is the work on the “**center**,” sometimes also called the “**powerhouse**.” This center corresponds to the deep muscles of the abdominal belt: the transversus abdominis, the obliques, the rectus abdominis, as well as the back and pelvic floor muscles. By activating this **natural corset** with every exercise, we intensely engage the deep abdominals, which are responsible for support and a flat stomach.
Unlike many traditional methods, Pilates does not favor crunches or rapid, repeated movements that only target the surface. Instead, we focus on **precision**, control of movement, **breathing**, and core engagement to build a solid and deep foundation. The result: improved posture, a **finer silhouette**, and a stomach that tones up over the course of the sessions.
How Does Pilates Sculpt the Abdomen?
During every session at MB Studio Pilates, we guide you through specific sequences that mobilize and strengthen the entire abdominal area. Here’s why our method is so effective for achieving a flat stomach:
- Transversus Abdominis Activation: Pilates intensely engages the transversus abdominis muscle, the true natural girdle of the stomach. Strengthening it helps to flatten the abdomen and support the spine.
- Deep Breathing: We teach you to synchronize breathing with effort. With every exhale, you further engage the abs, maximizing their effectiveness and reducing internal pressure on the pelvic floor.
- Postural Correction: A flat stomach is not just a matter of muscles! Posture plays a key role. By straightening the back and stabilizing the shoulders and pelvis, you prevent slouching and naturally highlight the waistline.
- Flow and Control: Pilates prioritizes quality over quantity. Exercises are performed slowly, with attention paid to every detail: pelvis position, spine alignment, perineum engagement… It is this approach that guarantees lasting results.
Who Is It For? What Are the Benefits?
We welcome all profiles to the studio: those who want to regain a leaner waistline after pregnancy, after a period of inactivity, or simply those who wish to strengthen their abdominal girdle for health or aesthetic reasons.
The benefits don’t stop at the silhouette! By regularly practicing Pilates, you improve your balance, stability, breathing, and consequently reduce back pain or the risk of injury. Achieving a flat stomach through Pilates is also about learning to use your body better in daily life.
Our Tips for Optimizing Results
At MB Studio Pilates, we advise our students to adopt a regular practice, ideally two to three times a week, for noticeable results. But, more than frequency, it is the quality of the effort and the awareness of the movement that make the difference.
We also encourage you to combine Pilates with healthy lifestyle habits: walking, hydration, a balanced diet, and stress management facilitate abdominal toning and overall body harmony.
Sessions Adapted to Everyone
In our studio, we personalize each session according to your level, goals, and specific bodily needs. Beginner or advanced, you benefit from individual coaching, precise correction, and advice to progress at your own pace—without pain or risk to your health.
