Pilates focuses on the core muscles of the body – these are 26 muscles located in the abdominal and lower back area of the body.

Some of the movement principles of Pilates are:

  • ACHIEVE BALANCE: Importance of uniformly developed muscles of the body in Pilates.

  • BE EFFICIENT: Working towards efficiency helps to focus our energy where it is needed.

  • SEEK HARMONY: Harmony of the mind, body, and soul which is the essence of Pilates.
