Reviews
Shortly after World War I, Joseph Pilates, an accomplished nurse, gymnast, skier, and boxer, perfected a rehabilitation and conditioning program of "Balanced Body" exercise by combining both Eastern and Western philosophies. For almost 70 years his low-stress program, which concentrates on proper breathing, body alignment, and improved concentration, was used primarily by performing artists and athletes, but it is now becoming popular with the general public because it provides a no-impact workout appropriate for all fitness levels from the sedentary intellectual to the professional dancer. The Pilates Method can also be used safely by pregnant women and seniors. Gallagher, founder of the worldwide chain of Pilates Studios and professional physical therapist for ballet companies, and Kryzanowska, a master trainer and personal friend of Pilates, have compiled a comprehensive resource that details more than 70 exercises with over 300 photos. A section on frequently asked questions, a summary of core exercises, a glossary, weekly exercise plans, web sites, lists of certifying centers and certified instructors, and a "how to" list for purchasing equipment all add to the value of this excellent handbook. Recommended for all fitness collections.ARebecca Cress-Ingebo, Wright State Univ Libs., Dayton, OH
