It's called contemporary Pilates. Look it up. I also share passion for the original form too of course, but cannot fit the heavy equipment in my living room. Everything is always evolving. That's why it's awesome that J. Pilates passed his profound knowledge of body mechanics onto others.

In 2000, the courts ruled that the name Pilates stood for an exercise method and released the trademark. The downside: Often used for methods NOT Pilates BASED. Upside: Professionals with legitimate training may call their work Pilates, and add creativity to the practice. As long as the principles are present (Breath, centering, control, etc), it's not such a bad thing. Personally, I also love the basics.

For experts you would think that you would know that joseph Pilates the inventor of Pilates never ever used a ball. I guess not.

Pilates = no ball exercises. Horrible false advertising to try and make an extra buck.

Physio ball is great, but it's not Pilates. Or, far from authentic.
