I can't imagine a doctor saying that Pilates is no good with AS, as far as I have heard it's excellent as it is gentle on the joints. So long as the technique is followed thoroughly.
I have seen on previous posts about pilates that most suggestions involved going to classes first to learn the exact ways to do it properly, such as the breathing technique. I have done a few classes and enjoyed it but I found that the next day I'd almost overdone it because it didn't feel like it was hurting doing the ecercises but you work it a lot more than you suspect. So I'm only doing about 20 mins also until I strengthen those muscles I was sure didn't exist a few weeks ago.
My main aim is to hopefully get to the standard of doing my kickboxing again (no opponent).
Goodluck!!
