Coming soon - beginners mat Pilates. I will be bringing two beginners classes to Co. Harwich

A beginner mat Pilates class is a low-impact exercise class that focuses on building core strength, improving posture, increasing flexibility, and developing body awareness using controlled movements performed on a mat.

Key Principles You’ll Learn
* Breath control: Coordinating movement with breathing.
* Core engagement: Activating the deep abdominal and pelvic floor muscles.
* Concentration: Performing movements mindfully rather than quickly.
* Precision: Emphasizing quality of movement over quantity.
* Control: Moving smoothly without momentum

What It Feels Like
Many beginners are surprised that Pilates can feel challenging despite involving slow, controlled movements. You may notice:
* Your abdominal muscles working throughout the class.
* Improved posture and body awareness.
* Gentle muscle fatigue rather than being out of breath.
* A feeling of being stretched and strengthened at the same time.

What You Need
* Comfortable workout clothes that allow movement
* Water.
* Everything else is provided for you

Who It’s Suitable For
Beginner mat Pilates is appropriate for most fitness levels, including:
* People new to exercise.
* Those returning after a break.
* Individuals looking to improve core strength and posture.
* People seeking a low-impact workout that is gentle on the joints.
I will offer modifications and walk you through each exercise step by step, so no prior Pilates experience is required.

Shout to my Thursday mat class, they come every week and absolutely embrace whatever I throw at them! Today was a spicy routine with the ball for some proprioception and while pulling some faces they all loved it!
