What Is Classical Pilates?
Classical Pilates is a method to physical conditioning based on the original teachings of Joseph Pilates. It emphasizes six core principles: concentration, control, center, flow, precision, and breath, resulting in a harmonized balance between body and mind. This method integrates full-body movement, mindful breathing, and progressive sequencing to develop deep core strength, flexibility, and postural awareness.
