As Harvard Medical School states: Americans are far less healthy than they could be. Six out of every 10 live with at least one chronic disease, according to the CDC. Four in 10 people have two or more conditions. Chronic conditions like heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes exact a heavy toll on our collective health and productivity.

The research they looked at showed the following:

People who ate minimal processed foods, replacing them will a diet high in fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and unsaturated fatty acids, and low in red and processed meats, sugary drinks, trans fats, and sodium.
They did not smoke.
They got at least three-and-a-half hours of moderate-to vigorous physical activity each week.
Drank only moderate amounts of alcohol (no more than one drink per day for women, and two drinks or less per day for men).
Maintained a healthy body mass index (BMI) in the range of 18.5 to 24.9.

Our Story

When it comes to leading a good life, going through the motions simply isn’t enough. Those who achieve great things rarely do it alone -- they enlist a support team to help them succeed. At Sana Vita Studio Pilates and Yoga, we help our clients let go of stress, listen to their bodies, and completely re-think the way they move to get to the root of chronic pain, resulting from poor posture and alignment. If you don't have a process, a practice for moving from where you are to where you want to be, you are not likely to succeed. Our instructors call upon their diverse expertise in Yoga, Pilates, Yamuna Body Rolling, and Bodhi Suspension to promote tangible results. In our small group classes and individual sessions, we provide friendly, personalized instruction so you get the most out of every exercise. We also offer lifestyle advice to nurture wellness beyond the studio. We have many exciting and healthy exercise trends to teach you and you can look forward to an exercise experience which will be educational, challenging, and oh-so rewarding. The path to pain-free living starts here -- join us to put your best foot forward today.
