ピラティス
Significado: Pilates — a core-focused exercise method emphasizing posture, alignment, and controlled movement.
ピラティス has grown rapidly in Japan, partly driven by Korean celebrity culture — many K-pop idols and Korean actresses are known for doing Pilates, which inspired Japanese fans to try it. Machine Pilates (マシンピラティス) using the Reformer has become especially trendy, with studios popping up in urban areas. While yoga focuses on flexibility and relaxation, ピラティス is perceived as more athletic and body-shaping. It is popular among people seeking posture improvement, core strength, and a leaner physique.
