Starting with the foundation for all the exercises, Pilates<\/i> presents an in-depth treatment of mat work, including photos, imagery cues, and detailed instruction on breathing to help you perform the movements correctly. The mat work in this edition is organized according to a mat-specific version of the comprehensive BASI Block System used for the apparatus work. This arrangement enhances understanding of the expansive repertoire and provides the tools for creating personalized mat routines. A unique set of challenging exercise sequences is offered to facilitate performing the movements in one continuous, flowing motion.<\/p>\n
After the mat work, where most books stop entirely, Pilates<\/i> goes on to apply the same depth of instruction and photos to the full range of Pilates apparatus:<\/p>\n
