Pilates Classes

A great starting point for beginners or people who are recovering from an injury or prefer a slower pace. The Essential Matwork class teaches the Five Basic Principles of the STOTT PILATES method, and builds a foundation of exercises required to move on to the next level. This mat-based workout is designed to help participants develop leaner, longer-looking muscles, establish core strength and stability and heighten mind-body awareness. Props may be incorporated to add variety. Participants are welcome to stay in the Essential classes until they feel confident enough to enter the Intermediate class.

Matwork classes at Intermediate level will provide a bigger challenge and take you through a dynamic, full-body workout that focuses on improving flexibility and core strength, with exercises that stretch and tone all muscle groups. Programming may vary from session to session to include: Stability Balls, Flex-Bands, Toning Balls, Fitness Circle®, and BOSU** balance trainers. Class capacity is eight participants.

This is a fast paced dynamic workout that's going to give every part of your body a work out. Due to the pace and flow of the advanced workout there are some requirements that have been put into place.

1. You must be completely confident with the intermediate matwork.
2. You must be able to complete intermediate exercises without any props i.e. Arc barrels, leg weights, blocks to sit on.

This class will certainly challenge your core. A 60 minute full-body workout that focuses on improving flexibility and core strength with exercises that stretch and tone all muscle groups. Programming may vary from session to session to include, Stability Balls, Foam Rollers, Flex-Band* exercisers, Toning Balls, Fitness Circle® resistance rings, and BOSU** balance trainers. Class capacity is eight participants.

This beginner's class introduces the Reformer, the most popular piece of Pilate's equipment. This class reviews the Essential Reformer repertoire and some Intermediate exercises. Start getting a great work out and all the benefits that come with working on the legendary Reformers from your first session. Like the Essential Matwork classes, this class is a slower pace. Participants will learn how to set up the Reformer and get an energising total-body workout. Participants are welcome to stay in the Essential classes until they feel confident enough to enter the Essential / Intermediate class.

This is a fantastic class if you can't manage to fit in both a Matwork and Reformer class within the week, as it combines the two into one class. We focus on your abdominals in the Matwork section followed by an energising workout and fabulous stretch on the Reformer. If you've not had any Reformer training, this is an ideal opportunity to see what these machines can do for your body.

Experience on the Reformer is better for this class but not mandatory.

Class capacity is eight participants.

Essential / Intermediate

Once you've taken a beginner Reformer course, you can move up to the Group Reformer class. These classes progress from Essential level to an Intermediate level. The pace is moderate, yet challenging and will tone muscles, strengthen the core and provide an invigorating total-body workout. Participants must take the beginner Group Reformer course or receive one to one training on the Reformer prior to taking this class, unless you have had previous training.

Class capacity is eight participants.

This is a very challenging workout that requires experience on the reformers, as you will be using all that core strength you have built up to master the fun but tricky moves in this class.

All Classes are a duration of 60 minutes
