It's no secret that Pilates is having its moment in the sun. Beloved by the likes of Harry Styles, Miley Cyrus, and Madonna (and believe us, there are plenty more celebrities who rave about the workout), it's only fair to call Pilates the workout of the moment.
But it's by no means a new phenomenon. Pilates was first invented in the 1920s and has since evolved into a school of exercise with different teaching methods and styles. And while some of the contemporary styles are definitely gaining in momentum (STOTT Pilates, we're looking at you), many instructors still swear by the original method.
