Pilates at any age

The Pilates method is a whole-body technique that aims to “develop the body harmoniously, correct poor posture and lift the spirit”. It strengthens the abdominals and deep muscles with slow, controlled movements and no heavy weights — which is why it works at twenty as well as at seventy.

The principles of the method

You breathe deeply into the chest, without pushing out the abdomen. Every movement and every breath is thought through first and comes from the centre of the body; every gesture is controlled in space and time. The position stays upright and lengthened, the body is almost always moving, but the movements are slow and use the deep muscles.
