Mat Pilates is a great introduction to Pilates if you’re a beginner. For one, you only need a mat to start, and there are over 500 exercises to choose from. It requires no greater commitment than just showing up in a class or exploring an online tutorial from your own home. Mat work, when done with focus and precision is a full body workout. The majority of Mat Pilates practiced and taught includes a specific set of Pilates exercises in a particular order – this is referred to as the Classical Mat Series. Beginner and advanced exercises are included in the Classical protocol, allowing a progression to occur as the body gains balance, strength, and flexibility. But an advanced student can still return to beginner exercises on any given day for a reboot of basic skills or to focus with new understanding for a vigorously challenging workout.
