The 7" Exer-Soft Pilates Ball (also known as a Pilates mini ball or Pilates overball) is designed to be used for reformer Pilates, matwork Pilates, or as a general fitness ball for physiotherapy or rehabilitation. It can be used to support the back, hips, knees, neck, or other parts of the body and also increase the necessary balance to promote core strength/toning. The Pilates Ball can also be held between the hands, ankles, hips, knees, or inner thighs to increase strength and activate posture.
The Soft Pilates Ball is made from burst resistant PVC and will also slowly and safely deflate if they are punctured. Additionally, they provide excellent grip and a comfortable surface to work with. The 7" ball is a popular size used frequently by Pilates teachers and studios. However, a 9" or 12" size can be more appropriate for exercises which require a bigger area of support/resistance, so it is recommended to have more than one size for exercise diversity. The size/resistance of all of our Pilates Balls can be adjusted by inflating them with the accompanying straw.
