Made to Move

Pilates is a beautiful way to strengthen your body and calm your mind. In the fast-paced world where we live I'm always on the pursuit for peace and find Pilates deeply restorative and relaxing. Pilates is for EVERYONE regardless of age, stage or ability (adaptations and modifications can be given). After giving birth to three huge babies my body was left with aches and pains. Pilates has been hugely beneficial in helping me regain strength, mobility and flexibility in a safe and refreshing way.

The benefits of Pilates are HUGE

Increased strength and flexibility
Developed balance and coordination
Improved focus and concentration
Reduced stress and injury prevention
Improved self-awareness and self-esteem

A large part of Pilates is controlled breathing which helps slow our mind, increase our lung capacity and improve our circulation.

My Pilates classes are a mixture of Mat Pilates exercises, strengthening and balance exercises and deep stretches. We'll start by focussing on our posture and connecting with our breath. We'll then begin to move and once we've warmed up do a range of exercises some standing and some on the mat. We'll finish with a relaxation exercise.

In these classes you’ll learn a wide range of Pilates’ exercises and gentle stretches. focusing on correct posture, technique and execution. You'll grow in confidence and strength and as a result you'll begin to see the many benefits Pilates brings! Exercises are adapted to suit your ever increasing strength and flexibility (you can take the beginner or intermediate option) I believe these classes work best as a term-long commitment. This means we can go on a journey together building each week on what we've previously learnt and making sure everyone understands correct technique, to prevent injury.
