It is a physical fitness system developed by Joseph Plates. Its other name is controlology. It is a synthesis of balance, breathing and movement systems that foresee the integrity of the mind and body.

It is a set of movements that cover the whole body and are applied based on the basic principles of Concentration, Control, centering, fluent movement, precision and breathing.

In Pilates, instead of repeating each exercise many times, it is preferable to perform fewer, complete, controlled and specific exercises. In this principle, the most important thing is to apply the movements in the most accurate and slow way.

*** Therefore, trying to do the same by seeing it from a book or on a screen will only lead to injury or worsening the situation.

Before the Pilates application, the individual should be evaluated well and after the disability and problems are determined, it should be applied with appropriate exercises.

Since Pilates consists of 500 exercises in total, its uncontrolled application can cause serious injuries.
