The main aim is to condition the deeper, supporting muscles of your body to improve posture, balance and coordination.Equipment-based Pilates – this includes specific equipment that works against spring-loaded resistance, including the ‘reformer', which is a movable carriage that you push and pull along its tracks. Moreover, we have the chair, cadillac and barrel.Pilates consists of moving through a slow, sustained series of exercises using abdominal control and proper breathing. The quality of each posture is more important than the number of repetitions or how energetically you can move. Pilates is based on putting yourself into unstable challenging postures.
