Pilates is a complete exercise method developed by its founder Joseph Pilates over the course of a lifetime dedicated to improving physical and mental health.

Pilates focuses on building your body's core strength and improving your posture through a series of low repetition low impact stretching and conditioning exercises.

By core strength, we are talking about your back, abdominal and pelvic muscles. Through Pilates, you will be able to develop these muscles without adding bulk, increasing your flexibility and agility and at the same time toning your stomach and thigh muscles.

Pilates goes far beyond your core muscles however and not only provides a complete body workout (you will be working muscles you didn't even know you had), but also helps you develop an awareness of how your body works, helping your mind and body to work in harmony.

You will see a real improvement in your performance in other sports & daily activites as a result of Pilates practice.

Pilates is based on eight principles:

  • Relaxation
  • Alignment
  • Control
  • Precision
  • Breathing
  • Centering
  • Flowing Movement

Getting Started With Pilates
Start with a one-to-one with a qualified Pilates teacher. As a complete beginner you will be given personal attention to perform the exercises at a level you feel comfortable with & the support to progress in your own time.

Pilates Progression
If you've tried Pilates in the past or have just got out of the habit of practicing the techniques, regular tuition is ideal to get you back on track. Improver, intermediate & advanced sessions are available, with an emphasis on increasing the intensity in your own time.
