Pilates and aqua exercise are the fastest growing exercise programs in the world today. The combination of Pilates performed in the water allows engagement of the upper and lower extremities through optimal ranges of motion while minimizing stress on the joints resulting in a unique cross between exercise and physiotherapy. Aqua Pilates answers the need to learn safe, balanced, effective and powerful exercises that result in a toned, lean and supple body. Authored by: Anna Shay McEntee
