What is Pilates?

Pilates is a low-impact exercise method that focuses on strength, flexibility, and mindful movement. By combining intentional breathing with controlled movements, Pilates helps to build core strength, improve posture, and enhance overall body awareness. It's an adaptable and accessible practice, making it perfect for beginners of all ages and fitness levels.
