Pilates is not a new trend… it has been around for nearly 100 years! Even the Mat exercise sequence we celebrate each March is turning grey (it was first published in 1945)… or, is it?

This year, our caption theme—sponsored by 360° Pilates—focuses on the relevance of the Pilates method TODAY. How does Pilates support you in your everyday life? How is something that was established many decades ago still working for us? What does Pilates look like for you, especially after having been somewhat limited to the Mat work for the past two years?

“Pilates here and now” is also an invitation to get real with the work… no need for filters, staging, rehearsing, or trying to make it look “good” (as if there was such a thing in Pilates)… instead, we want you to feel comfortable to share your practice and perspective in the real-est way possible.

Why is there a caption theme?

It’s simple… while March MATness provides you with a blueprint to feed your social media channels for 31 days, you may be at a loss when it comes to posting this regularly… Perhaps you’ve participated for many years already and don’t know what to write about. That’s why we offer a caption theme for you to piggyback on; it’s just another way for us all to connect and unite in our shared passion. If you want to participate, be sure to tag @360pilatesonline and @marchmatness, and use the hashtag #pilateshereandnow.

The caption theme is completely optional.
