The founder of the field of Pilates, Joseph Pilates, named the basis of the Pilates Method as the art of Contrology. Contrology refers to the conscious control of the muscular movements in the body, understanding principles and applications of equilibrium and gravity as applied to the movements of the body in motion, at rest, and in sleep. He conceived and developed a logical learning process.
Every motion has a purpose and this is the Essence of Motion.
Evelyn Kuo’s intention is to stay true to the traditional tenets of the Pilates Method.
