PILATES
Pilates is a total body conditioning exercise focusing on strength, posture, control and balance - appropriate for all ages and levels.
Matwork Pilates
|
A great place to start your pilates journey, using only your body weight and small equipment: balls, circles, bands & rollers to work on alignment, control and specificity throughout movement. All levels welcome, many variations are given so you can work at your own pace. Classes are 55 minutes. We offer general matwork classes, and also a specific MENS pilates class - see timetable. |
Reformer Pilates
|
Using the principles of matwork pilates, but using the extraordinary properties of the Reformer: a spring loaded sliding carriage with bars and straps to challenge or give support throughout movement. Class sizes are small (maximum 6) ensuring you have correct technique whilst working in a group fitness scenario. We offer 45 minute lunch classes, else all classes are 55 minutes. All levels welcome, variations given for you to work at your own level. We offer general reformer classes, dynamic reformer (a more challenging class), beginners reformer and stretch reformer. |
Clinical Pilates
|
Research-based Clinical Pilates is an individualised programme designed specifically for your injury/rehabilitative needs.. An initial assessment is required by a Physiotherapist, and class sizes are small (maximum 5) to focus on your particular needs, receiving 1:1 guidance and working through your independent programme. A great way to begin Pilates if you are struggling with an injury, or are a beginner needing more support. Partially covered by ACC if you are recovering from an injury. |
Privates & Duets
|
Perfect for friends who want to take classes together, couples or even individuals wanting more guidance and specificity, using the Pilates reformer, and small equipment. A couple of private sessions is a great way to introduce the Pilates concepts & basics prior to entering a class. |
