Pilates
Summer Term
Relaxing and remarkably effective, Pilates promotes postural awareness and spinal health whilst building a strong, lean and flexible body.
Focusing the mind and body, the exercises integrate breathing techniques, alignment and control to provide an interesting and safe class that everyone can enjoy.
Avoiding lots of boring repetitions the Pilates technique encourages fluidity and precision to correct and assist with faulty movement patterns and most muscular skeletal issues.
All exercises can be modified to suit individuals of all abilities. Pilates is also a challenge for strength, balance and agility using the resistance of one’s own body and just a simple mat!
