Pilates: for the thinking body
The Pilates method has been taught for more than eighty years and is endorsed by many health practitioners. This method is a conditioning program that not only has physiological benefits, but increases awareness of the body/mind connection. The method is taught using the full range of Pilates' equipment which includes; reformer beds, cadillac, wunda chair, spine corrector, high barrel and half barrel.
Classes also incorporate mat exercises with small props such as the Ultra lite circle, rotating disks, balance boards, foam rollers and the gym ball.
Some of the benefits Pilates has been shown to provide are: improved flexibility, greater strength and muscle tone, more efficient respiratory system, more efficient lymphatic system, lowered stress levels, better posture, a flatter and trimmer stomach, toned buttocks, thighs, arms and shoulders, less incidence of back pain, an improved immune system and greater joint mobility.

Studio classes (Privates or Groups of maximum 4 people)
Studio classes involve using all the equipment and take place in small groups to ensure that your physical requirements are met. Before joining a group class, we do a private class where you can work out your goals with your instructor. The instructor will then tailor a specific program of exercises for each of your sessions.
Our tailored programmes provide safe and effective ways to stretch, strengthen and streamline the body without building bulk or stressing the joints. Our instructors deliver constant supervision and quality instruction for the duration of the session. Special attention is placed on safety, cueing and appropriate exercise selection.
