What You Need to Know About Pilates
Pilates is a form of exercise invented by Joseph H. Pilates 102 years ago. Joe was born with asthma, rickets, and rheumatism – he was a very weak child. He was self-motivated and decided to do whatever it took to cure himself. He learned yoga, martial arts, boxing, gymnastics, and many other forms of movement in great detail – and he cured himself! When he was in an internment camp in Britain during World War I, he insisted that everyone in his unit followed his exercise regimen. For those who were injured and bedridden, he removed the springs underneath their hospital beds and used them as resistance weights to help them exercise.
Joe aimed to make his body move as efficiently as possible while looking as fit and strong as possible. And that’s exactly what Pilates does. It makes your body move as efficiently as possible while developing all your muscles evenly, giving a long and lean look to each body that practices Pilates.
The beauty of Pilates is that your previous exercise level does not matter. Whether you are new to exercising, a sports person, a cross-fit addict, or a gym goer, Pilates will help you be better at whatever you do.
At PAD Pilates and Dance, we offer Mat Pilates in Dubai and many types of equipment Pilates to help you achieve your desired body! But more importantly, it will make you FEEL better about your body than ever!

PILATES CLASSES
Pilates can be done on many different kinds of equipment. While the reformer pilates in dubai is the most famous, at The PAD we offer 7 other kinds of equipments too!
A Pilates Reformer is a specialized equipment used in Pilates workouts. It has a sliding carriage, adjustable springs, straps, and pulleys. The Reformer provides resistance and support for various exercises that target core strength, flexibility, and muscular balance.
To use a Pilates Reformer, you lie, sit, or kneel on the carriage and perform various exercises by pushing, pulling, or stretching against the resistance provided by the springs. The adjustable springs can be modified to increase or decrease resistance based on individual needs and fitness levels.
It is recommended to wear comfortable, form-fitting clothing that allows for ease of movement. Opt for breathable materials and avoid loose or baggy attire. Grip socks are often required to provide traction and stability on the Reformer. Check with your instructor or studio for specific dress code guidelines.
Reformer Pilates offers numerous benefits, including improved core strength, posture, flexibility, and body awareness. It can enhance muscular strength, endurance, and balance while promoting relaxation and stress reduction. Reformer exercises target multiple muscle groups simultaneously, providing a full-body workout with low impact on the joints.
Reformer Pilates classes are typically conducted in small groups or one-on-one with a certified instructor. Classes may incorporate exercises performed on the Reformer and other Pilates equipment. The instructor guides participants through movements, emphasizing proper technique, alignment, and breathing.
It is essential to consult with your healthcare provider before starting or continuing any exercise program during pregnancy. In some cases, modified Reformer Pilates exercises can be safe and beneficial for pregnant women. However, working with a qualified prenatal Pilates instructor who can provide appropriate modifications and ensure your safety is crucial.
The duration of training sessions can vary depending on individual goals, preferences, and available time. Typically, Reformer Pilates classes range from 45 minutes to an hour. Some studios may offer shorter or longer sessions based on their schedule and client needs.
Reformers provide a unique workout experience compared to other forms of exercise. The Reformer’s sliding carriage, adjustable springs, and various attachments allow multiple activities targeting specific muscle groups.
