Pilates is an exercise technique composed by the legendary Mr Joseph Pilates. He developed exercises for soldiers and elite sports people from a combination of ballet, boxing and martial arts disciplines. Due to this his original exercises are tough, fast paced and perfect to challenge a primed 'healthy' body. Thankfully over the years thes
e exercises have also been refined and adapted so they can be taught at different levels so they are achievable for all. Pilates follows some fundamental principles which each exercise is based upon. In short these are control, alignment, precision, concentration, centring (core stability), breathing and flow. So by focusing and controlling each movement with increased body awareness you can not only improve it but learn a lot about your body too. Classes are mainly mat based, using many different positions including lying on your back, front, side, kneeling, standing and sitting. I can adapt sessions to suit your needs, please get in touch so we can discuss the best way to do this for you.
