Types of Classes

Pilates is a zero-impact form of exercise and classes being an hour in duration involve a combination of strength-training and core-strengthening incorporating stretching and endurance work. Strengthening and toning of the different muscle groups are achieved by utilizing a combination of concentric and eccentric (lengthening and shortening) movements. Any person of any age can do Pilates – as each class is specially tailored to suit the needs and physical development of the particular client. Pilates exercise primarily takes place through the use of Pilates equipment, such as the Reformer or Cadillac with the supplementary use of other apparatus such as mats, bands, and balls.

In terms of classes on offer, clients have a choice of the following:

Private Sessions

A private session will allow the instructor to focus on your individual needs by developing a program shaped purely for you. You will be able to progress through the Pilates repertoire utilizing the Pilates equipment, such as Reformer, Cadillac, Barrels, and Chair incorporating the use of smaller apparatus such as mat, balls, flex bands, etc. It is highly recommended that you participate in a private class if you are pregnant if you have any health concerns if you are very unfit or are in need of rehabilitation from an injury. If you are unsure of your fitness level we will be able to advise you accordingly.
