On Tuesday, December 19, the Student Dormitories Sports Hall hosted more than 30 students, faculty, and staff who participated in the Pilates master class organized by the Physical Education and Sports Center. Pilates is a method of exercise and physical movement designed to stretch, strengthen and balance the body. Involving the systematic practice of specific exercises coupled with focused breathing patterns, Pilates has proven itself invaluable both as a fitness endeavor in and of itself, and also as an important adjunct to professional sports training and physical rehabilitation of all kinds.

The master class was given by Pilates instructor Pelin Baykal and at the end of the program all participants received special Bilkent T-shirts.
