Joseph Pilates originally developed his method, which he called “contrology,” as a sequence of controlled exercises to strengthen and stretch the body, connect to the core and bring the individual into proper alignment, in order to improve mobility and decrease pain. Joseph Pilates established 6 core principles of Pilates: Centering, Concentration, Control, Precision, Breath and Flow. It is proven that Joseph Pilates system and principles work to help keep bodies balanced and aligned. Therefore, Classical Pilates Education strives to uphold Joseph Pilates’ legacy by molding future instructors who teach intelligent, safe and effective workouts as Pilates was intended to be taught.
