Social Sciences - Science (general)
English term or phrase: Pilates
Pilates helps you to use muscles and breathing exercises to co-ordinate mind, body and spirit.

I could not locate the Hindi equivalent of this term even in the most comprehensive dictionaries/glossaries on the subject. Any suggestions?

Thanks in anticipation.
