Why do you love Pilates?

Pilates helps me feel more in tune with my body and allows me to move through everyday life with strength and confidence.

Why did you start?

I was introduced to Pilates as a supplement to physical therapy for promoting healthy, functional movement, which inspired me to learn more.
