What is Pilates?

Over 100 years ago, Joseph Pilates developed a form of exercise called Contrology, focused  on the mind-body connection. The mind should control thoughtful, careful movements of the body. When you understand how the body works, you can maximize your efforts because this exercise incorporates the concept of strengthening all of your movements as they are connected to one powerful core.

How can I benefit from it?

There are many benefits to Pilates, including but not limited to,  Coordination, Strength, Mobility, Proper posture, Sense of well-being, and Integration of mind, body and spirit.
