With detailed descriptions, step-by-step instruction, and stunning full-color anatomical illustrations, Pilates Anatomy takes you inside the exercises and programs that will tone the body, stabilize the core, improve balance, and increase flexibility. Using the original mat work of Joseph Pilates, you’ll see how key muscles are used, how variations and minor adjustments can influence effectiveness, and how breathing, alignment, posture, and movement are all fundamentally linked. Choosing from over 45 exercises, you can target a particular body region and delve deeper to stretch, strengthen, and finely coordinate specific muscles. You’ll also find techniques for breathing, concentration, and self-awareness for a unique exercise experience that enhances your mind and your body. Whether you are just beginning to explore the beauty and benefits of Pilates or have been practicing for years, Pilates Anatomy is a one-of-a-kind resource that you’ll refer to again and again. Review: Great Book for Person Who Wants To Learn the Whys and Wherefores of Pilates - I LOVE this book. It is a great book for someone who likes to know the nitty gritty of every little bit of what they are doing and why. When I took Pilates lessons my instructor became a little annoyed by my constant questioning about which muscles are we working, how does this affect this set of muscles, what can I do to improve this, and how can I modify this is I have a certain limitation. I think she felt that I was slowing down my learning but for me it was because I wanted to understand so I could do it just right. (or maybe it reminded her of a 3 year old asking questions for which she had no answers). Many people (especially those who are not learning to do Pilates for fun) may find this book filled with too many anatomical details but I think that they would still like it because it gives lots of info (what they refers to as cues) so that you can learn to do it right (not everyone lives near a Pilates studio or can afford classes). If you prefer to learn by watching then this may not be the book for you but I think that you could still benefit from information on technique and modifications. If you feel overwhelmed by scientific names or don't really care about the mechanics of the exercise, stick with a class or CD or desertcart prime video. Also I don't recommend any books on Kindle except for little mini guides and fiction or poetry. As Kindle works now it is not the best format for reference books or complex cookbooks or exercise - anything where the material references back to another part of the book - like this one. Review: good product - This book gives you the inside knowledge of what Pilates Exercises are accomplishing as per each muscle group. I believe it gives you more incentive to work out knowing this information. It doesn't mean that one needs to attain the knowledge of a physician in order to understand the general concepts. It helps you shape your workout to your needs, I believe. I have been doing Pilates for 3 months with a Personal Trainer and have seen the results but wanted to know more about the subject. I think one day I may become a personal trainer myself as I am very enthusiastic about Pilates. I have worked with weights all my life but I believe Pilates is easier on the joints and yet gives you very good results in muscle tone, balance, and that very famous 'core' strength. In summary, it you want to delve a little bit more into the philosophy of Pilates exercises and how they affect your muscles, and your muscle tone, this is an excellent book and easy to read, and has illustrations as well. ## Features - SHK01422 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #670,513 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #189 in Pilates (Books) #890 in Sports Training (Books) #956 in Yoga (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 614 Reviews | ## Images ![Pilates Anatomy - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51nohcnquSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Book for Person Who Wants To Learn the Whys and Wherefores of Pilates *by A***S on December 16, 2015* I LOVE this book.

As a Pilates instructor, I am always on the hunt for books that I can use as a resource and that can double as a teaching tool when shared with my students. Pull out this book anytime you want to gain information about form, synergistic muscle relationships while performing the exercises, as well as the ever helpful Technique Cues and Exercise Notes that help to flesh out each exercise. The very helpful Exercise Finder at the back of the book enhance this user-friendly book by Karen Clippinger and Rael Isacowitz. What this book offers that so many others omit, is this: Clear labels on each diagram...and fabulous illustrations. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pilates Anatomy - Anatomy Coloring Workbook, 4th Edition: An Easier and Better Way to Learn Anatomy - Strong Curves: A Woman's Guide to Building a Better Butt and Body --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.dk/products/1702470-pilates-anatomy](https://www.desertcart.dk/products/1702470-pilates-anatomy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Denmark* *Store origin: DK* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
