Pilates update

AW BASICS’ recent article on Pilates has led to a number of letters both attacking and defending Pilates.

The article was only intended to give athletes and coaches an introduction to what Pilates can potentially offer and the author, Joe Mills, was reluctant to supply the photographs we used as he said readers should not try to copy pictures in the magazine but are recommended to find a qualified teacher instead – something we stressed in the article.

The writer was not an unqualified, non-athletics person either. Mills was a British junior international 1500m runner in the Nineties and is a member of Blackheath & Bromley. No longer a serious competitor, he nevertheless ran a respectable 15:11 for 5000m last year.
