PILATES CLASSES FOR EVERY BODY
Pilates is a movement-based exercise method created by Joseph Pilates in the early part of the 20th Century. It can be practiced on a mat or on various pieces of equipment designed by Joseph himself. Pilates is suitable for everyone* ranging from those new to exercise to professional athletes and dancers.
Joseph had a holistic approach to health and recognised that breath control during Pilates practice contributed greatly to successful outcomes - controlled breathing is one of the fundamental Pilates principles.
Traditionally, in a studio setting, Pilates is taught in a 1:1 up to 4:1 student to teacher ratio under the guidance of a professionally qualified Pilates instructor. The small class size enables the instructor to choose exercises specific to the student’s needs and to safely guide them; precision is key to improving both technique and outcomes.
Practicing Pilates has many benefits including:
Increased strength and elasticity
Improved co-ordination and balance
Greater motor control, proprioception and bodily-kinesthetic awareness
Enhanced mind-body connection
Assists with injury prevention and rehabilitation

At the end of the consultation, together with the instructor, an appropriate training schedule can be decided upon.
