If you need a break from the heavy exertion of weight lifting, HIIT training, or tough games on the court, then Pilates is a great choice for you.
Pilates will help you mobilize your joints, strengthen your core, and develop a more lithe dancer physique. It is an excellent form of exercise to do on its own or counterbalance more intensive forms of exercise.
Participation in Pilates has been steadily growing. 11.86 million people did Pilates in the US in 2023 — a 15% increase from the previous year. With this growth, more and more Pilates studios are springing up.
