What is Pilates?
Pilates is a mind-body exercise method developed by Joseph H. Pilates, who overcame chronic childhood illnesses like asthma and rickets by creating his own system of conditioning. Originally called Contrology, Pilates blends flexibility, strength, and controlled movement to support the entire body.
There are over 500 Pilates exercises, using both mats and specialized equipment (such as the Reformer) to help with:
-
Postural alignment
-
Injury prevention
-
Core and joint strength
-
Muscle rebalancing
-
Rehabilitation and recovery
Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or improving your athletic performance, Pilates supports your goals in a safe, effective way.
