The Pilates Method utilizes a specific set of exercises that are performed with emphasis on precision and control rather than increased repetition.
Because Pilates works the body holistically, the result is balanced muscle development and a decrease in injury and chronic pain due to misaligned posture and muscular imbalance. Joseph Pilates believed that “it is the mind that shapes the body," therefore, pilates requires concentration and focus.
Pilates exercises are performed on a mat or on an apparatus, such as a reformer, cadillac, Wunda Chair, or high ladder barrel- just to name a few. The mat was created first and is the foundation of Pilates.
