And there's certainly been no shortage of Pilates iterations doing the rounds in the past few years: wall, vertical, contemporary, Tower - you name it, we've tried it.

The reasons for our Pilates obsession are manifold: we know that the practice enhances posture, core strength, flexibility and balance (check out this study, from the Muscles, Ligaments & Tendons Journal) while also improving mental health outcomes, too - see this research, published in the journal Healthcare (Basel).
