Pilates, developed by Joseph Pilates in 1920, was originally designed to help injured servicemen and consisted of various exercises performed on hospital beds. Over the years, Pilates has evolved and now appeals to all populations, regardless of age, level of fitness, and mobility. Pilates is now integrated into nearly all top-level sports due to its numerous benefits.

There are many benefits to be gained from practising Pilates at Ardent Pilates. It strengthens the back and abdominal muscles, improves breathing and circulation, and alleviates everyday aches and pains, particularly associated with neck, shoulders, and back pain. Pilates also creates long, lean, and defined muscles, improves posture, mobility, and flexibility, relieves stress and tension, enhances body awareness and focus, and aids in recovery after injury while reducing the risk of reoccurrence.

The Pilates method is based on six fundamental principles: centering, breathing, precision, control, concentration, and flow. These principles were the basis for the original 34 moves in the matwork repertoire developed by Joseph Pilates. However, as lifestyles have changed significantly over the years, with more sitting and the use of electronic devices, resulting in postural issues and joint complications, the exercises have been researched, adapted, and modified to address these concerns.
