In 1999 Allan wrote the bestseller, "The Complete Guide to the Pilates Method". As the demand for Pilates continued to grow, he felt this will be an invaluable text for those wishing to reduce those niggling aches and pains and for those wishing to become familiar with the basics steps in sensible body maintenance and even those embarking on a career in the growing Pilates industry. This book is a basis of, not only perfection in movement, but also a requirement for the next step into exercising for physical rehabilitation. The book was used by the Institute for the Pilates Method and the Pilates Institute (UK) (no connection) as a theory manual for their students. It was also used as an exercise prescription manual for the Degree Course in Osteopathy at the University of Western Sydney. The book was reprinted in the USA in 2000 and in a second edition in 2004 with a Spanish edition in 2009. It is available on-line from the Pilates Institute as an e-book The two books Jo Pilates wrote, compiled into one volume, "Pilates - His Complete Works" by the Institute is also available from Pilates Online Shop. Allan and the Pilates Institute have also produced 13 DVD titles on the Pilates method.Some of these titles have also been reproduced in the USA, Germany, Turkey and other countries. Menezes also trained in New York in the Gyrotonic Method with Matt Aversi of Gyrotonic Corp USA and pioneered this method into Australia in 1998. Allan has also trained instructors from around the world and conducts courses in Denmark, Singapore, New Zealand and the UK. Those who have already trained in Pilates around the world in other styles have found Allan's teaching still a challenge physically, and also mentally as his approach is so mechanically different and innovative, that they have to change what they have been taught. He was invited to present papers at a Sports Medecine Conference in May 2007 in Gothenburg, Sweden. Menezes has also worked with WeightWatchers Australia to produce a Pilates DVD and has trained the gym staff in Menezes Pilates at the Hilton Maldives Spa and Resort. Allan has also created many new movements and exercises, including the Menezes Position - a revolutionary new idea in greater abdominal connection. Menezes' innovative style is such a common sense approach for today's sedentary population and growing back and neck pain market, that the style of Pilates he has now created is so different from the rest of the world, he has decided to name it THE MENEZES METHOD.
