Another couple of quotes from Joseph Pilates….
“If, at the age of 30, you are stiff and out of shape, you are old. If, at 60, you are supple and strong, then you are young!”
“Pilates develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind and elevates the spirit.”
