Precision
Precision, or exactness of
movement is what sets Pilates apart from other exercise systems. Precision requires focus, awareness and
controlled action. Every movement has a
purpose and every cue or instruction is important to the success of the
movement. In Pilates, we use fewer
repetitions that are executed with control and precision, performing one or a
few perfect movement rather than several haphazard ones. The end result is efficient, graceful
movement that appears effortless.
“Concentrate on the correct movements
each time you exercise, lest you do them improperly and thus lose all vital
benefits. Correctly executed and
mastered to the point of subconscious reaction, these exercises will reflect
grace and balance in your routine activities.”
–Joseph Pilates
