Reformer pilates: health and fitness benefits of the Hollywood-approved workout – Evening Standard
Posted: March 17, 2024 at 2:37 am
Pilates was developed by the German trainer Joseph Pilates, who was held in an internment camp on the Isle of Man during the First World War. While there, he was inspired to develop a system of exercises using apparatus. The idea was to strengthen both body and mind via alignment, core work, and overall conditioning. He took his method to New York, and it gained in popularity. For many years, pilates was mentioned in the same breath as yoga on account of both disciplines being low impact and said to affect the mind and body in equal measure, but we are now realising that they are entirely different exercises, each with their own devotees.
