As well as the traditional matwork, Joseph Pilates designed a comprehensive system of exercises that are performed on different pieces of studio equipment/apparatus. The most well know being the Reformer, the Cadillac (or Tower) and the Wunda Chair. Designed with a system of pulleys, springs, handles and straps, the equipment can provide either a challenge with resistance or support, depending on the client’s needs, whilst performing the pilates repetoire.
