Business descrıption and ıntroductıon Pilates as training system • Nowadays Pilates is one of the most preferred training systems on the fitness market. Being advertised and also personally used by celebrities makes it also one of the trendiest. It uses a persons own body weight and can be done on a Pilates reformer machine or on a mat according to the difficulty level, that the customer wishes to use. Modifications of the exercises allow the variation of difficulty ranging from beginner to advanced. • Because Pilates only requires a machine that can do multiple movements or a mat, it can be done also in small places as oppose to huge fitness studios with 1000 different machines. • It is a gentle yet very challenging mind-body workout.
