What is contemporary pilates?
In 2000, a court decided that the term Pilates could not be trademarked. As a result, many schools have taken extensive liberties with the system – adding exercises, changing principles, including new kinesiology research, etc, in programming sessions and developing a new curriculum. This system allows for greater creativity, but, in my opinion, also allows for too much freedom and as a result many Pilates classes resemble yoga far more closely than Pilates. Contemporary schools include STOTT PILATES, Balanced Body, and Polestar Pilates.
