What is pilates?
Created in the 1920's by Joseph Pilates and his wife Clara, Pilates, has become a phenomenon all over the world. Starting in an English internment camp in WWI and continued to be developed in New York after he emigrated in 1923. In his words, the Pilates method "develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind, and elevates the spirit." Joe was way ahead of his time, viewing the body holistically and emphasizing the body working as a whole unit.
Today, the Pilates method consists of a repertoire of over 500 exercises to be done on a mat or on one of the many pieces of equipment Joseph Pilates invented. The exercises are usually done in a series organised by levels: beginning, intermediate, advanced, and super advanced. Pilates exercises as a whole develop strong abdominal, back, butt and deep postural muscles to support the skeletal system and act as what Pilates called the “Powerhouse” of the body.
The Pilates method works to:
- Strengthen the Core
- Lengthen the Spine
- Increase Body Awareness
- Build Muscle Tone and
- Gain Flexibility
The Pilates method is also an excellent rehabilitation system for back, knee, hip, shoulder and repetitive stress injuries. Pilates addresses the body as a whole, correcting the body’s asymmetries and chronic weaknesses to prevent re-injury and bring the body back into balance. As Joe used to say, "after 10 sessions, you'll notice a difference, 20 sessions, other people will notice a difference, 30 sessions you'll have a whole new body", Joseph Pilates, 1945.
