“If your spine is inflexibly stiff at 30, you are old; if it is completely flexible at 60, you are young.” -J. Pilates
Would you like to move with greater ease & efficiency, be more active, and less prone to injury? Do you suffer from poor posture? Back pain? A knee or ankle injury? Want to improve strength? Repair & recover pelvic floor post-pregnancy?
Our weekly therapeutic Pilates classes focus on posture, core strengthening, balance, breathing, flexibility and a fascial release approach. Class size is small so that exercises are specific to individual needs, and the main goal is to help activate targeted muscles for a safe return to optimal physical capacity.
In the sessions you will learn & develop the ‘the Basic 10’ Classical Pilates moves and healthy tips to help you:
- strengthen the deep abdominal and spinal muscles
- alleviate back/joint pain
- create space in the joints and spine especially to help avoid compression of the spine
- develop postural awareness & understand the correct hip pelvic alignment for natural healthy movement
- open the chest and strengthen the upper back to help ease pain in the shoulders and neck
- deep and healthy Pilates breathing to increase lung capacity and effective oxygen circulation
- Increased stability in ankle joints and foot arches, and thereby increased stability and alignment of knee joints
Start your mornings feeling stronger, calmer and walking a little taller in these weekly classes that are energising, fun, safe and healing.
