How many principles is piates based on?
The Pilates Method is made up of six principles: Concentration, Centering, Breathing, Control, Precision and Fluidity.Concentration: The mental focus is of primary importance with any movement we attempt to have our body carry out. Understanding where each part of the body is positioned and the interconnectedness of movements of the body is critical to attaining the necessary level of concentration.Centering: The muscles comprising what Joseph Pilates considered the "center or core" are the abdominals, mid and lower back, hips, and buttocks. "Pilates called this center or core the 'powerhouse'. Strength in this area of the body promotes overall body-control and balance. By learning proper positioning of these muscles, one gains both abdominal strength and control which supports and provides fluidity for all the body's movements.Breathing: Taking deep inhalations energizes and replenishes your mind and body, while full exhalations help rid the body of toxins, Joseph Pilates believed, "To breate correctly you must completely exhale and inhale, always trying very hard to 'squeeze' every atom of impure air from your lungs in much the same manner that you would wring every drop of water from a wet cloth."Control: Control involves the previous three principles. It allows movement of the body to occur avoiding injury and promoting effective exercise movements.Precision: Is directly associated to the principle of concentration as it requires focus. Performing movements with precision requires time and training to attain the desired level of effortlessness.Fluidity: The Pilates method is not based on "static, isolated movements." Whether we are going about our daily activities or practicing the Pilates mat work, our bodies should move in a synchronized and flowing manner.Learning and utilizing these Pilates Method​ principles to correctly perform Pilates movements will not only ensure the fullest possible benefit from the exercise, but in​ time, will become integral to everyday movement, posture, and sense of well being.
