Lynne Robinson, Lisa Bradshaw and Nathan Gardner demonstrate why this hugely popular exercise method has gone from cult status to an essential part of our modern lifestyle. "The Pilates Bible" will be the most authoritative and comprehensive book on Pilates matwork ever written. Drawing on the latest medical research, the authors have updated and refreshed the old favourites as well as introduced many new exercises and variations. All can be performed with little or no equipment and "The Pilates Bible" allows you to progress safely at your own pace through Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced. There are also special sections on Pilates for new mothers and children, and people suffering from problems such as osteoarthritis, back pain and knee injuries as well as Pilates at the gym and the workplace, and for the performing arts and sport. This is truly the one-stop guidebook for Pilates novices and those hoping to consolidate what they already know.
