What is Pilates?
It's All About You
Pilates has long been described as the "thinking person's" exercise. The amount you invest in the technique, like everything, correlates directly with its impact on your body. You will see the best results if you take what you learn with you and use it in your daily life.
Core Story
Pilates is famed for it's development of your "core" your "centre" your "powerhouse" but it is so much more. The founder of the technique, Joseph Pilates, taught us to look at the body as a whole. We are mad about posture, obsessed with feet, focused on your gluts (in a pc way of course) and will teach you how the positioning and alignment of your body impacts how you move and relates directly to how you use your abdominals.
No Promises.
Improvement takes time, permanent change, even longer. We don't make promises, it's down to you. If you come to us with specific goals we will do our best to help you achieve them but you have to do the work. Pilates is a lifetime, lifelong, learning commitment and if you want to be healthy and active throughout your lifetime commit...come to class every week, come rain or shine because we would love to share our passion with YOU.
Reformer and big equipment Pilates
We teach Reformer and big equipment sessions as they are meant to be taught; one to one! You will tour all the big equipment to enable you to find movements with assistance and resistance in a supportive and focused environment. Big equipment work is FUN and it's not only for the instagram fabulous bright young things! The big equipment was initially designed for rehab and although it offers huge challenge as you progress we put everyone from 18 to 80 on it.
