Pilates
Joseph Pilates created "The Pilates Principles" to condition the entire body: proper alignment, centering, concentration, control, precision, breathing, and flowing movement.
The central aim of Pilates is to create a fusion of mind and body, so that without thinking about it the body will move with economy, grace, and balance.
