WHAT IS PILATES?
Pilates is a ‘physical fitness system’ developed in the early 20th century by Joseph Pilates, who it was named after. Joseph Pilates called his method "Contrology".
It is a form of low-impact exercise that aims to strengthen muscles while improving postural alignment and flexibility. Pilates moves typically tend to target the core, although the exercises work other areas of your body with the aim of toning and strengthening your core muscles.
