Joseph Pilates original principals and exercises are adapted for the water. "Peyow" (pee-yow') is the Chinese Mandarin word for float, "Floating Pilates." Anne Pringle Burnell, creator of the PeyowTM Aqua Pilates program produced the PeyowTM Aqua Pilates 85-minute DVD, and the Manual for instructors and therapists, which was written with physical therapist Lee Everett.
The PeyowTM Aqua Pilates workout facilitates increased flexibility while challenging the individual to maintain core stabilization, balance, and postural alignment in the healing environment of water. Pilates enthusiasts who practice traditional Pilates may want to add the element of water for a greater challenge to stability. It is a great alternative for those who have limitations in the Pilates mat workout, which is gravity based (body weight) or do not have access to the resistance machines of traditional Pilates. Beginning Pilates students, especially those who love aquatics, could benefit greatly from adding some of these core strengthening and stretching exercises to their routine.
