What is Pilates?
"You will feel better in 10 sessions, look better in 20 sessions, and have a completely new body in 30 sessions." - J.H. Pilates
Estudio Pilates Benalmádena
Pilates is a body conditioning technique with over 100 years of history. It was created by Joseph H. Pilates in the 20th century.
Pilates is good for everyone. Everyone, from adolescence to old age, regardless of their body type, medical conditions, or injuries, can benefit from practicing it. You will gain a stronger core, a healthier, more flexible, and balanced body so that you can be more active and healthy.
THE PILATES METHOD
Originally, Joseph H. Pilates called it Contrology (the mind's control over the body), and it was incorporated from his time into the development of the potential of all types of people, including elite athletes and dancers.
The method is the result of a lifetime of studying the human body and its correct functioning, which consists of performing a series of exercises in a specific order on a mat and with special apparatus designed by himself.
These exercises develop the body and mind in a coordinated and uniform way, providing STRENGTH, FLEXIBILITY, AND CONTROL through movement.
At Estudio Pilates Benalmádena, we faithfully respect the original principles of the method designed by J.H. Pilates, and that is why we work to ensure that our clients achieve their goals regardless of age, physical condition, or injuries.
"...The exercises of Contrology build a sturdy body and sound mind fitted to perform every-day tasks with ease and perfection, as well as to provide a vast reserve of energy for sports, recreation, and emergencies..." - Joseph Pilates
