What is and isn’t Pilates?
A lot of people mistakenly think Pilates is just a stretching, mind-body activity that makes you feel good but doesn't provide significant results. The reality is that Pilates creates substantial strength and increased range of motion, resulting in lean body weight through a well-balanced full-body workout.

Pilates is a non-impact exercise system created more than 80 years ago by Joseph H. Pilates. Based on a combination of stretching and resistance training, it is designed to lengthen and strengthen muscles, focusing on developing a strong torso and spine, or "core." These core muscles are the body's center of power and control.
