Contrology is not a fatiguing system of dull, boring, abhorred exercises repeated daily "ad-nausem".

Self-confidenc e, poise, consciousness of possessing the power to accomplish our desires, with renewed lively interest in life are the natural results of the practice of Contrology [Pilates].

The Pilates Method of Body Conditioning is gaining the mastery of your mind over the complete control of your body.

Contrology develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind, and elevates the spirit.

Contrology is complete coordination of body, mind, and spirit.

I must be right. Never an aspirin. Never injured a day in my life. The whole country, the whole world, should be doing my exercises. They'd be happier.

Concentrate on the correct movements each time you exercise, lest you do them improperly and thus lose all the vital benefits of their value.
