A strong, toned body doesn’t always have to come from lifting weights. You can just as easily get a great body strength workout at home with just your yoga mat and a Pilates routine.

Pilates is a form of exercise that uses controlled movements designed to improve physical strength, flexibility, and posture. The movements focus primarily on your core to condition your body and build stronger, more sculpted muscles without any excess bulk. The result is a sleek, toned body. Pilates can also help to improve your posture from the ab and back strength you’ll gain through the controlled movements. This beginner Pilates exercise program is designed to help you build a strong foundation in the Pilates method.

The Pilates method begins with your body and a mat on the floor. You won't need studio equipment for these exercises.
