Product Description
Product Description
This title includes Pilates as you've never seen it before! With detailed descriptions, step-by-step instruction and stunning full-colour anatomical illustrations, "Pilates Anatomy" takes you inside the exercises and programmes that will tone the body, stabilise the core, improve balance and increase flexibility. Using the original mat work of Joseph Pilates, you'll see how key muscles are used, how variations and minor adjustments can influence effectiveness and how breathing, alignment, posture and movement are all fundamentally linked.

Format:Paperback
I have recently trained to teach Pilates. This is the best Pilates book I have found. Contains more information than the £3000 six month training course I paid for at a Pilates training establishment in Milton Keynes - in retrospect I could have bought this book and trained by home study, with a bit of backup from the excellent videos by Pilates on Fifth on You Tube. Buy this book, you won't be disappointed.

This book contains information on both the basics of Pilates, teaching points as well as some of the exercises showing the various muscles that are used. This book, for me, incorporates some other books that I have, but are rolled into one which also means this book is practical as well. I wanted this book as soon as I saw it being advertised on Amazon and I'm very, very pleased that I did make the purchase.
