20 years of Pilates, and still going strong!
Actress Kerry Washington has shared that Pilates has been part of her movement routine for two decades, highlighting her longstanding appreciation for the mind–body connection.
While Pilates continues to attract attention through celebrity fitness routines and social media trends, its value extends well beyond the spotlight.
For Pilates Association Australia, stories like Kerry's offer an opportunity to highlight what makes Pilates a lasting movement practice: its adaptability, emphasis on controlled movement, and potential to support strength, mobility, body awareness and overall wellbeing.
Pilates is not defined by a particular body type, age or fitness level. With appropriately qualified instruction and individualised programming, the method can be adapted to support a wide range of people, abilities and movement goals.
Because Pilates is more than a trend. It's a practice that can evolve with you throughout life.
