At its core, Pilates (which is a system of movements, not an exercise) stresses on stretching, strengthening and stability in movement. Pilates not only improves coordination and maintains balance, it also stretches while strengthening the body at the same time.

And as visionary founder Joseph Pilates always believed: When the body is properly aligned, fitness, rehabilitation and a healthy state of mind will come into being.



Pilates For Everyone


When Joseph Pilates’ opened his first studio (in North America) in New York City, he had a huge following among dancers who needed him to fix their twisted ankles and busted knees.
These days, it seems everyone—from avid golfers and triathletes to everyday folks who want to breathe better and be more “body-aware”— are streaming into studios. Pilates is the exercise choice for all because movements and intensity can be adapted easily to suit different body types or levels of fitness and flexibility, making it safe for everyone.

Pilates For Mothers
(Pre & Post-Natal)

Got a little one on the way? Begin with baby steps to prepare your body for childbirth. With stretches that work on the core, back and pelvic floor (Kegel) muscles, pilates prepares the pre-natal body for the stress of childbirth by strengthening those areas. Throw in breathing techniques and centering (or inward focus of pilates) and pilates can aid in calming the nerves and easing labour pains. When you’re ready, take the pilates moves up a notch post-natal to achieve a toned, stronger mid-section and help shed post-baby weight quicker.



Pilates For Seniors


Most pilates exercises are performed on the mat but don’t let working on pilates equipment intimidate you. These gentle giants prove effective in improving the body’s motor control and strength while providing the right support, which is important in working with the elderly, whose movement or functional use of the limbs might be impeded due to ageing or muscle degeneration.

Pilates For Rehabilitation


More than 90 years ago, Joseph Pilates pioneered a series of exercises to help injured World War I veterans get well and back on their feet again. That’s why pilates movements have a therapeutic application. Therapists have been using pilates to successfully fix common gripes like posture flaws and neck pains.
