About Pilates

Jennifer Aniston, Tina Turner, Liv Tyler, Vanessa Williams, Rebecca Romijn, Hugh Grant, Danny Glover, professional golfers and sports teams (like the San Diego Padres) and many other celebrities have helped to create an explosion in the demand for Pilates training (pronounced Puh-LA-Tees).

This demand has not only made Pilates world renowned for producing lean lithe physiques, it has become the latest buzz word in exercise and a must for those who want to strengthen and sculpt their “core” muscles and enhance their flexibility.

Pilates, however, is not a new style of exercise, or even the latest “craze”. Named after the man who invented the exercise system in the early 1900’s, Pilates has been widely embraced by dancers, ice skaters, gymnasts and the Hollywood and social elite for nearly a century. read more
