Mat Pilates

Mat Pilates is a low-impact workout focused on core strength, flexibility, and overall body alignment, performed on a mat rather than using specialized equipment like reformers. Developed by Joseph Pilates, the exercises involve controlled movements that emphasize proper form, breathing, and muscular engagement. Mat Pilates targets the core, or powerhouse, which includes the abs, lower back, hips, and glutes, while also strengthening and toning other areas like the legs and arms. It improves posture, enhances stability, and increases flexibility, making it suitable for all fitness levels.
