Joseph Pilates developed this exercise methodology in the early 1900’s to help fellow internees in a German national camp in England and, later, World War I veterans injured in the war. Later, Pilates brought his exercise to the United States. Mat Pilates is a way to stretch and strengthen your body, primarily the muscles of the core.
