Overview

A physical fitness system that was developed by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century, Pilate helps to improve flexibility, strength and also develop control of the entire body. Pilates places emphasis on alignment, breathing, building a strong core and improving the co-ordination and balance of the body. It helps to reduce back pain and also helps the elderly to live a healthy life.

Pilates helps its practitioner to maintain a better posture, makes them less prone to injury and thereby lets them experience good health. The routine practice of Pilates helps to build flexibility of the body, strength, endurance and co-ordination without allowing its practitioners to gain in bulk. It has been widely practiced by dancers, gymnasts as well as actors to maintain a healthy body.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
