“Every day is a good day to do Pilates”
~ Joseph Pilates
Joseph Pilates, the creator of Contrology, or Pilates as we now know it, maintained that we are only as young as our spinal column. “If your spine is stiff at 30, you are old. If it is flexible at 60, you are young.”
The Pilates exercise system is designed to strengthen the body in a holistic way. The emphasis is on core strength, balance and co-ordination.
I initially took Pilates lessons to help ease a niggly back. Since then, my back has eased; my posture has improved, and my flexibility has increased. It takes time, but any body can change with Pilates.
I am trained in Mat and Barre pilates, and use small equipment in my classes. This allows me to be more adaptable to the issues clients present with. I also offer chair pilates for people who would like the option.
Live classes are always the most rewarding for teacher and client alike. My classes are structured, but we have a lot of fun and definitely exercise the laughter muscles too. However, I appreciate you can’t always make a class, but that doesn’t mean you have to go without. One-to-one and two-to-one lessons are available at The Garden Studio, my home studio. Please contact me for more information.
There are also free videos to use as and when you wish, to help your own practice at home.
