THE METHOD
“The whole country, the whole world, should be doing my exercises. They’d be happier.”
- Joseph Pilates
Joseph Pilates created his method over 100 years ago and it has stood the test of time; being as intrinsically vital today as it was back then.
The method is a complete system of exercises that are designed to reverse the effects of poor daily habits and improve vitality, strength and overall wellbeing in all it’s participants.
We work with the Classical Pilates method to help you to ultimately FEEL better within your body. Though other benefits such as improved posture, greater control and strength, more efficient breathing, increased confidence (to name but a few) will be achieved also!
Each class will get your body moving as a whole, no joint or muscle will be left behind! With each exercise designed to challenge, strengthen and lengthen your entire body.
Focus will be given to HOW you are moving and not just WHAT is moving; allowing you to connect your mind and body for greater mastery over your movement that will be unmistakably reflected in the way you walk, work and play.
Within each class we will guide you through the method using demonstration, hands on corrections and verbal cues to allow you the best possible chance to connect and understand not only the method but also how your body feels.
Pilates really is for every BODY and we can’t wait for you to begin your journey!
