ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Pilates

Pilates is a type of exercise that helps us move our body in different ways. It's kind of like a fun game where we stretch, balance, and strengthen our muscles.

Imagine going on an adventure with your body where you learn to control your movements and breathe in a special way. You might pretend to be a butterfly, a jellyfish, a flamingo or a lion.

There are different Pilates exercises that can help you stretch out your muscles gently and make them stronger over time. We might do things like pretend to row a boat, lift our legs up to the sky and reach for a star.

Pilates can be fun and relaxing for both our mind and body. It helps us move around better, feel good, and have fun at the same time!
