Pilates was never designed to be split into types. It is a system.

Pilates is often treated like a workout, but it was designed as a system. Pilates only works when it is taught and practised as a complete method, not a collection of exercises.

Pilates is often described as a workout, but it was designed as a method. Created to build strength, control, and coordination through a structured system of exercises, Pilates works best when it is practised with consistency and intention.
