No Risk Pilates

Using the eight Pilates principles, this book suggests making the connection between the human anatomy and the exercises of Pilates. It therefore takes account of the body structure, emphasizes the risks and indicates possible preventative measures, always linking the practical with the theoretical. Each chapter illustrates a particular risk associated with a type of exercise, suggests solutions and, finally, describes similar workouts with the Reformer on the mat where the same risk is apparent.
