    Abstract: O processo de envelhecimento é caracterizado por diversas alterações morfológicas, fisiológicas, funcionais e bioquímicas. Objetivos: Investigar o efeito da aplicação de exercícios do método Pilates sobre ângulos e distâncias dos segmentos corporais de idosas. Métodos: Realizou-se um estudo quantitativo, de intervenção, com aplicação de 20 sessões de exercícios do método Pilates, duas vezes por semana, em uma população de 20 idosas, as quais passaram por uma avaliação postural biofotogramétrica pré e pós-intervenção. Resultados: Foram observadas diferenças posturais, constatando-se redução da distância do ângulo inferior da escápula, distância dos epicôndilos, distância do processo estiloide; distância entre T1 e os ângulos inferiores da escápula, diminuição do ângulo manúbrio do esterno e epicôndilos e alinhamento horizontal da cabeça. Conclusões: A prática de exercícios do método Pilates foi suficiente para promover melhora em algumas variáveis posturais. Recomenda-se a realização de novos estudos com população e frequência maiores para obter-se efeito positivo nas demais variáveis do perfil postural.

    Abstract: ABSTRACT This study aimed to verify the effect of the Pilates method (PM) on the body posture of elderly women in a community. A non-randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted in 40 elderly women aged between 60 and 80 years, divided equally into Intervention Group (IG) and Control Group (CG). The groups answered a sociodemographic questionnaire and were evaluated, in pre- and post-intervention moments, using biophotogrammetry, through the software SAPO. The IG performed a program of 12 Pilates exercises, twice a week, with duration of 50 minutes, for 12 weeks. A nonparametric statistical analysis was performed using Mann-Whitney test with significance value of p 〈 0.05. The results showed before the intervention the distance between the acromions, epicondyles and styloid process were lower in the CG, in relation to the IG; however, after the intervention, no significant difference was observed between the groups. After the intervention, a statistically significant difference was observed in the variables: distance from the superior (p=0.01) and inferior angle of scapula (p=0.02) of the IG in relation to the CG. The conclusion was that Pilates promoted a positive effect on some variables of the postural profile of the elderly women, being suitable for community groups for practice of physical activities.
