What is Pilates?
Pilates was developed almost 100 years ago by Joseph Pilates. Joseph Pilates originally created this type of exercise because he suffered from severe asthma and had not found anything else that improved his ability to breath better. It is a type of exercise that incorporates proper breathing and movement patterns and with the use of specialized spring loaded equipment can assist you to improve flexibility, and core strength and create long lasting results for your mind and body.
