There are no scientific research studies on Pilates. However, Pilates appeals to a wide population. Dancers and actors originally embraced it as a form of strength training that did not create muscle bulk. Professional and amateur athletes also use these exercises to prevent reinjury. Sedentary people find Pilates to be a gentle, non-impact approach to conditioning. Pilates equipment and classes can be found in hospitals, health clubs, spas, and gyms.
