Pilates, developed in the 1920's, is a style of exercise that utilizes a unique sequence of movements that work the mind and muscles in harmony.  Pilates focuses on 5 basic principles:

  

Concentration -

conscious control of movement enhances body awareness.
Control/Precision/Fluidity -  proper form and smooth continuous motion is required for safe, effective results.
 
Centering -  focusing on the body's 'core' (the pelvic girdle, abdominals, lower back and hips) improves efficiency of the rest of the body.

Alignment -  proper positioning of the head and neck over the spine improves posture.
