Pilates is an exercise style that involves training your muscles to improve posture and alignment.

Our bodies and spines are designed to move in many different directions: flexion, extension, rotation and sidebending. If you can maintain these movements you will be able to stay flexible and strong, and prevent injuries and general aches and pains.

Pilates aims to keep you moving in all these directions, but is also perfect for helping you recover from injuries that may be currently preventing you from moving well and pain free. A good qualified instructor should understand your injuries and movements that are and are not appropriate for you.

Pilates also focuses on increasing your core strength: when your core is strong you enhance the little muscles in the body so you’re better able to support the larger ligaments, tendons and joints.

Why is it so good for you?

When our muscles are weak or out of balance they make compensations for each other which could lead to instability and injury.

Pilates encourages you to think about how you perform your everyday movements so when you leave the Studio you are still using the Pilates principles in your day to day tasks. It heightens your body awareness which inturn improves your overall agility, flexibility and strength. It helps you ensure your body is working at its optimal level all the time.

What are the benefits?

Increased strength and flexibility and improved overall mobility. Pilates will give you more of a holistic result than most other exercise regimes and it will make you focus on your breathing which is great for improving circulation and relieving stress. It’s a fantastic way to balance out your health and wellbeing.

Pilates is suitable for everyone; beginners, pregnancy, post partum, older adults, athletes and people with injuries. It’s very complimentary to any other exercise you may be doing, and we can also work on sports specific training for clients with specific goals or sports.

Pilates is also great for people with injuries because it encourages you to strengthen your problem areas in a relaxed and low impact way. It is advisable that anyone with serious injuries consults their doctor or physiotherapist.

Pregnant women should also get the okay from their doctor before proceeding, and post natal clients need to have had their 8 week check up before commencing.
