The Origin
Joseph Hubertus Pilates was born in Germany in 1883. A sickly child who suffered from asthma and other ailments, he dedicated his life to improving his physical strength and health through exercise, studying yoga, martial arts, and gymnastics.
During World War I, he developed his method of exercise—originally called "Contrology"—using springs attached to hospital beds to help bedridden patients rehabilitate. This concept of spring-based resistance became the foundation for the Pilates Reformer and other apparatus still used today.
After emigrating to New York in the 1920s, Joseph and his wife Clara opened their first studio, attracting dancers, athletes, and anyone seeking a smarter way to move. Nearly a century later, the Pilates method continues to transform bodies and lives around the world.
Physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness.
