This Bloom Pilates ball is a 20cm soft ball with a thicker wall than our standard mini balls and a non-slip surface. It comes in white, pink or blue, and you get both a hand pump and an inflation straw.
It weighs 300g, against 120g for our smooth and textured 20cm balls, and it’s anti-burst to about 136kg (300lb).

How to use it
A 20cm ball is a common size for mat Pilates. It fits between the knees or ankles for squeezes, sits under the lower back or pelvis for curl-ups, and can go under your feet or calves in bridges. Held in both hands, it gives you something to reach with in roll-ups and twists.
The non-slip surface helps when the ball is under a sweaty lower back or pressed between bare legs. Inflate it to the firmness that suits you: softer for comfort under the back, firmer for squeezes. The hand pump is quicker than the straw, and the straw is handy for small adjustments.
If you’re choosing between sizes, 20cm is the easiest to hold between the ankles and gives the least lift under your back. The 25cm and 30cm balls raise you higher and feel bigger between the knees.
If you teach or run classes, the pack of 10 Bloom Pilates balls works out cheaper per ball. For rings, bars and other small kit, see our Pilates equipment.
Care
Wipe it down with a damp cloth after each session and let it dry before storing. Keep it away from sharp edges and heat. If it’s going into storage for a while, let a little air out.
