Why Pilates?


Mind-Body Exercise
Pilates is a mind-body exercise system that was developed in the 1920s by Joseph Pilates and is now practised worldwide by over 11 million practitioners.

Numerous Benefits
Its methodology focuses on core stabilisation and postural alignment to improve balance, strength, flexibility and general physical health.

Great for Everyone
The system utilises matwork and a variety of studio apparatus to achieve these aims, and is appropriate for people of all ages, fitness levels, and body types. In the words of Joseph Pilates, the system "develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind, and elevates the spirit”.
