Pilates is a form of low-impact exercise that aims to strengthen muscles while improving posture and flexibility. Pilates exercises target the powerhouse/core muscles primarily and surrounding muscles secondarily. Movements are controlled and precise with emphasis on the breath to bring awareness to the body. Many athletes use Pilates to cross-train because it complements every other fitness endeavor by preparing the body to move better in every way.
