What is Pilates?
Pilates is an exercise discipline that was developed by Joseph Pilates in the early 1900's. It is a systematic approach to physical conditioning that incorporates physiological and biomechanical principles to ensure safe exercise that produces positive results.
The exercises are done in various positions on either a mat or other apparatus. Some exercises are performed entirely in supine, prone or side-lying positions. Others start from a seated position. Still others start on the hands and knees. The various exercise positions help to promote a balanced musculoskeletal system. The workout involves forward and lateral flexion, extension, and rotation. Every exercise is rooted in spinal movement or spinal stabilization. The limbs are often used as weights as well as tests of coordination, balance, and flexibility.
