Pilates

Our contemporary approach

Our Pilates is Stott-based ie a contemporary approach to the original method developed by Joseph Pilates. The classes and exercises are designed to help restore the natural curves of the spine, by strengthening weak muscle groups and lengthening tight muscle groups and thereby restoring muscle balance.

Over the years, our teaching of Pilates has changed and evolved to suit client’s needs and thereby resulting in more effective results.

Even in the past two years, with much evidence emerging regarding the benefits of strength & conditioning for all -our classes have adopted this into the format. We also have included flexibility, bone building exs and pelvic floor work

  • CLASSES ARE SMALL – ensuring individual attention.
  • BEGINNERS are never mixed with any other level to ensure that all who attends clearly understand the basis and principles behind Pilates and so exercise effectively.
  • Our Pilates is CLINICALLY-BASED and therefore is particularly suitable for those with neck or back issues, poor posture etc.
  • All exercises can be modified as necessary for each client.

Therefore Pilates is suitable for all – but at their appropriate level.

***Since the Covid 19 pandemic, we have decided to continue with just 2 online classes per week for now held on Wed morning and evenings. These are at Improver/Intermediate level. We have decided not to hold Beginner level online at present as we feel that a more “in -person” approach is better to learn the basic pilates principles. However, we are quite happy to teach the basic pilates movements during a Physio session and when you re ready to let you join our Wed classes
