Is Beginners Pilates for me?
Beginners classes are suitable for those who have little or no previous Pilates experience. The class focuses on technique, isolation and correct activation of muscle groups, but are still a workout. Beginners classes are suitable for you if you have back pain, a musculoskeletal injury or health condition and you wish to return to an active healthy lifestyle. You will be closely monitored by our Pilates instructors, all of whom are physiotherapists. This allows them to tailor the exercises to your needs, and adjust any exercises which you may have difficulty with.
If you have injury concerns or are recovering from an injury or pain, then please get in touch with us first- we would recommend a 1:1 session with one of our physiotherapists before commencing the class.
What can I expect?
The classes are mat based and will focus on the key principles of Pilates and will help develop your strength, tone, flexibility and improve your posture. A basic level of fitness is helpful but not essential. You will be introduced to small Pilates equipment throughout the block, which adds variety to the classes and exercises. You will receive a supplementary booklet with the class to allow you to continue your practice at home.
What should I bring?
You will need a mat and a Pilates equipment pack which can be purchased here. Our instructors do carry spare packs if you are looking to trial the class first. Dress as you would for a fitness class, we do the class in bare feet or socks. Bring a bottle of water to keep hydrated! Please note on your first class, we ask that you arrive at least 5 minutes early. This is to allow you enough time to discuss any issues with the instructor. Prior to commencing the class you will be asked to fill in a medical screening form (this is standard procedure for all participants).
