Description

[Machine Translation] Bruce King is one of the Pilates teachers who studied directly with Joseph and Clark Pilates. This is the only book on exercise written by King, who for many years lived in the room next door to the Pilates' studio and learned how to move and exercise in a way that was good for his body and good for his health. Records show that he had already begun writing the book in the summer of 1984, and it was published in 1991, two years before his death. It is the essence of the Pilates method, written with everything he had learned over the last years of his life. The author's words are simple, unadorned, and easy to understand, even for those who have never studied Pilates. To introduce Bruce King, a little-known figure in Japan, the book includes a timeline of his life and an interview with Mary Bowen, a direct disciple of Joseph Pilates who also studied Pilates with King for five years.

Description in Japanese

RULE OF THE BONES / ブルース・キング/著 川名昌代/訳

ブルース・キングはジョセフとクラーク・ピラティス夫妻に直接学んだピラティス教師の一人です。これは長年ピラティス夫妻のスタジオの隣の部屋に住み、体に良い動き方、健康に良い運動方法を学んだキングが著した唯一のエクササイズの本です。記録では1984年の夏には既に執筆を始めており、出版されたのは1991年となっています。それは亡くなる2年前の事で、晩年を費やして学んだことの全てを込めて書き上げたピラティス・メソッドの神髄です。真面目で几帳面な性格の著者の言葉は飾らずシンプルであり、ピラティスを習ったことのない人々にも分かり易く書かれています。本書では、日本ではあまり知られていないブルース・キングについての人物紹介のため、彼の人生の年表とジョセフ・ピラティスの直弟子であり、キングにも5年間ピラティスを習った経験を持つメアリー・ボーエンのインタビューを添えました。
