I am thinking of taking up pilates, has anyone else any experience of this form of exercise?  

I believe it will help me to build my core muscles ... but will I be able to get up off the floor cry with my dignity intact ?

    Yes go for it. I was doing Pilates for a long time before my hip needed replacing. I had to give it up. I went back 6 months post op, and it made my new hip feel like part of me to the first time.I have had a brilliant outcome. I am 69 and fit.

    Good luck.
