| Pilates Pilates is a relatively modern form of exercise created by Joseph Pilates. He called his method, Contrology, which was based on his original 34 exercises. Many Pilates Certification Institutes around the world have modified and added to these moves to create this extremely beneficial and focused postural training.
Pilates uses movements with the body in a neutral and ideal alignment. Core muscles are recruited to keep this alignment and participants learn to use a Pilates breathing technique to maintain their core contraction and alignment. Pilates is precision in movement and instructors maintain a 'quality over quantity' attitude for all participants. Exercises will only be performed if all of the joints are in proper alignment. This creates a strong core, and the exercise also helps to balance mind and body. Cape Pilates teach modified moves to ensure safety and effectiveness
