Pilates enhances balance and coordination, reduces joint stress resulting in long, lean, strong but flexible muscles. It's actually an accessible way to build strength in your core muscles for better posture, balance and flexibility. Pilates is a method of exercise that consists of low-impact flexibility and muscular strength and endurance movements. Pilates emphasizes proper postural alignment, core strength and muscle balance.
