(Clara Pilates) 教授的運動體系深受著名電影明星、舞者和音樂家的歡迎，她昨天在聖克萊爾醫院去世。她已經95歲了。
普拉提控制學方法是由她的丈夫、已故的約瑟夫·普拉提 (Joseph Pilates) 創立的，他於 1926 年與身為護士的德國妻子一起來到美國。他們共同創立了約瑟夫·H·普拉提環球體育館。
他們的客戶包括小提琴家耶胡迪·梅紐因 (Yehudi Menuhin)；蘿倫白考爾，演員；現代舞先驅露絲·聖丹尼斯等。紐約城市芭蕾舞團的喬治·巴蘭欽和傑羅姆·羅賓斯，以及該團的許多舞者，如蘇珊娜·法雷爾，都遵循普拉提體系。
四年前，工作室從原來的第八大道 939 號搬到了西 56 街 29 號。
聖丹尼斯小姐曾這樣評價控制學：“不僅是身體煥發了活力，精神和精神上的清爽也是無法估量的。”
普拉提夫人留下了兩個兄弟，弗里茨和奧托·佐伊納，以及一個妹妹，桑尼·弗羅伊登伯格。禮拜儀式將於週一至週五上午 11:30 在位於麥迪遜大道和 81 街的 Frank E. Campbell's 舉行。
Clara Pilates, who taught an exercise system popular with leading film stars, dancers and musicians, died yesterday in St. Clare's Hospital. She was 95 years old.
The Pilates method of contrology was founded by her husband, the late Joseph Pilates, who came to the United States in 1926 with his wife, a nurse, from Germany. Together they founded the Joseph H. Pilates Universal Gymnasium.
Their clients included Yehudi Menuhin, the violinist; Lauren Bacall, the actress; Ruth St. Denis, the modern‐dance pioneer, and others. George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins of the New York City Ballet, as well as many of the company's dancers, such as Suzanne Farrell, followed the Pilates system.
Four years ago, the studio moved from its original location at 939 Eighth Avenue, to 29 West 56th Street.
Miss St. Denis once said of contrology, “Not only is the body rejuvenated, but the mental and spiritual refreshment is beyond calculation.”
Mrs. Pilates leaves two brothers, Fritz and Otto Zeuner, and a sister, Sonny Freudenberg. Services will be held Mon, day at 11:30 A.M. at Frank E. Campbell's, Madison Avenue and 81st Street.
