ost of us, owing to
chronic rigidity and ten-
sion in our bodies, are -
full of knots. Then there
are the elastic elite, the Jennifer
Krieses of the world, who are as sup-
ple as shoestrings.
To reach the level of Kries, who can
turn an exercise mat into a showcase
for her pliability and power, you have
to have the stomach for it.
"kali emanates from the center,"
she says. 'All the exercises are about
trunk stabilization." You want total
control over your arms and legs? You
want exemplary, symmetrical posture
that enhances movement while lifting
you to a new height?
Strengthen the abdomen, buttocks
and lower back.
"If you took a poll as to what part
of the body people have the most dif-
ficulty in toning, it's the abdominals
and buttocks," Kries will tell you.
Kries, in her exercise tapes and
classes throughout the country, targets
these areas by modifying a discipline
professional dancers have embraced
for decades: pilates (puh-LAH-tees).
Not traditional pilates, which
entails stretching and strengthening
muscles on custom machines with
straps and springs. Kries operates sans
apparatus, on a mat.
"Self-imposed isometric resistance,"
she calls it. "Using the body as a tool."
Kries demonstrates her approach on
two exercise tapes, "The Method:
Precision Toning" and "The Method:
Precision Sculpting," both of which
retail for $12.98 and are distributed
by Parade Video. She also teaches and
trains instructors throughout the
country.
If Kries, 28, succeeds in making the
fundamentals of Pilates accessible to a
large audience, she will have made a
major breakthrough. Pilates, hereto-
fore, has had somewhat of a cult fol-
lowing.
As for "the method," trying to sim-
ulate Kries' fluid moves on a mat can
be as challenging as touching your
toes with your nose. Some of the leg
