PILATES
In the words of Joseph Pilates himself:
​
"Change happens through movement and movement heals"
Being a slow paced form of exercise, performed with awareness of breath and emphasising control and precision over movement, pilates has an abundance of health benefits and can be tailored to suit a range of ages, abilities and conditions.
​​
Pilates can help to:
-
Improve posture
-
Promote increased flexibility in the body
-
Improve core strength
-
Reduce back and joint pain
-
Strengthen muscles following injury/illness
-
Improve balance
-
Improve mental well-being
​
​To ensure that you are working at a level which best suits your needs we deliver 2 types of pilates class:
-
Beginners/easy pace
-
Improvers/moderate pace
​
Prior to booking into your first class, it is requested that you make contact with Di to discuss your needs and to complete a health and well- being assessment. This will help determine which level of class will best suit you.
​​
Sessions are 60 mins in length and for the most part are mat based (clients are asked to supply their own exercise mats)
​
Small equipment will also frequently be used to support the sessions (eg resistance bands, balls and weights ) and where possible you will be encouraged to purchase your own.
​
1:1 sessions are also available to book at the Class Fitness Home Studio in Christleton at a cost of £32 for a one off session or £135 for 5 (valid for 4 months). These are particularly useful for clients wishing to assess ability before committing to a class or where health issues need consideration.
