I love pilates, and have been practicing for six years now- in baby steps for sure. But over the long haul, pilates has done more for my posture and core than the decade prior doing exhaustive numbers of crunches and situps. The history on pilates is very interesting. Joseph Pilates wanted a way rehab injured World War I vets who could not move from their beds- hence the 'pilates' philosophy got underway. Later his expertise spread among the dancing and performing elite. Practical and pivotal in changing lives, and still is. Best, Serenity Thankyou for these demos!
