The benefits of Pilates
The Pilates method is a comprehensive training technique, both from a health and aesthetic point of view. Pilates, for example, helps to remedy back pain, muscle injuries, or refine the silhouette. A range of exercises will allow you to learn, or relearn, how to find optimal posture through self-improvement.
