How has Pilates evolved from its therapeutic origins to become one of today's most popular fitness trends?

What unique aspects of Pilates do you think contributed to its remarkable 84% growth in popularity last year?

From humble beginnings as a solution for Joseph Pilates' childhood health struggles in 1880s Germany, Pilates evolved into a revolutionary fitness method. During WWI, he innovated by using bed springs to help bedridden patients - inspiring the modern Reformer equipment we know today.

After opening his first NYC studio in the 1920s, Pilates gained popularity among dancers and athletes. The method emphasizes core principles: concentration, control, flowing movement, breath, and precision. Its effectiveness speaks volumes - ranking #1 in 2024's top workouts with an 84% surge from 2023!
