Where does Pilates come from?

Joseph Pilates, an innovator of therapeutic exercise from Germany, believed that "physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness." He developed the Pilates method (which he originally termed Contrology), a system of movement and therapeutic exercise, with the goal of enabling people to become physically fit.

What is the equipment for?

The Pilates method includes both exercises on the mat (without equipment) and on various apparatus (equipment). Pilates invented equipment to help his students develop the strength, flexibility, and coordination to attain complete control over their bodies. Once you learn a new skill on the equipment, you can take that skill into the mat work as well as into the rest of your life!
