The Pilates Method is a series of exercises developed by legendary physical trainer Joseph H. Pilates in the 1920’s. Originally called Contrology, Pilates emphasizes concentration and control with the integration of strength, flexibility, precision, breath, flow of movement, and the awareness between the body and mind to create a more uniformly developed body. Pilates strengthens from the inside out focusing on the deepest muscles in the abdomen, inner thighs, buttocks and lower back. The method has a repertoire of over 500 exercises that are done on their own or in conjunction with special pieces of apparatus and equipment. Pilates is designed to benefit everyone regardless of age or fitness level.
