Understanding and strengthening the body: Pilates specifically strengthens the deep core muscles, promotes strength, flexibility, coordination, and self-awareness. The exercises create a whole new body awareness for the correct upright posture of the spine, a relaxed shoulder and neck area, and for the interplay of breathing and movement, tension and relaxation. Therefore, Pilates is perfect for people with back problems and for those who sit a lot or move less.
