What is the Pilates? What kind of training/equipment does it involve? Can beginners do Pilates? Are there any good resources in terms of book/websites on Pilates?

Yes, beginners can do Pilates. As for what it is, have you searched already? There's a lot of resources available. – Dave Newton Nov 16 '11 at 1:45

Try to run your posts through a spell checker next time. Also its better to ask more specific questions rather than open ended ones. A simple Google search can answer a lot of the questions you're asking. The first one being wikipedia. – mike Nov 16 '11 at 1:46

Pilates are full body exercises that focus on strengthening your bodies inner core. The Pilates exercises that I have done before require no additional equipment. You don't need any special training, however they can be rather challenging! All you need is a good video.

Speaking of which, try this one, which is so appropriately named POP Pilates for Beginners - Total Body Workout.
