Pilates From Home

The spring of 2020 changed the way the entire world lived, in a way we'd never experienced before. Suddenly, we were no longer able to look after our physical and emotional health in the same way we had previously enjoyed and become used to.

However, new possibilities grow out of the challenge....

Staying Connected ... In more ways than one!

During this time, it has never been more important to stay connected to others and thankfully, the wonders of technology mean that we can still keep those positive connections and healthy habits in our lives.

Monday 8pm - Pilates to Kick Start Your Week

In this class we work through Pilates based exercises that are perfect for those looking to challenge themselves after already gaining some confidence in some of the more fundamental stabilisation, strengthening and mobility exercises.

We explore using foam rollers, spiky balls for myofascial release as well as resistance bands and soft pilates balls to help open and work the body.

Wednesday 10am - Gentle Morning Pilates

In this class we work through more of the fundamental Pilates exercises to empower you and help with your movement confidence.

We work on improving mobility in the hips, shoulders and spine. We also focus on finding stability and strength to help keep our bodies moving freely with less pain or stiffness

We explore spiky massage balls for myofascial release as well as resistance bands and soft pilates balls to help both challenge and assist with some of the exercises.

As this class is more gentle and slower paced, its really suitable for those new to pilates or recovering from an injury and looking to build strength and confidence.

Wednesday 8pm - Evening Seasonal Yoga

Seasonal yoga has its roots in both traditional Chinese medicine and Indian philosophy.

We work within the Seasons to fully support our health and wellbeing so we can start to really understand what we need both physically, mentally and energetically at various times of the year.
The physical yoga practice (Asanas) are guided by the Chinese meridan system which helps us support and nurture various organ systems which differs throughout the year.

This type of practice means that we honour the energy that ebbs and flows as we pass from Spring through to Winter.
Students are also taught pranayama (breathing practices) and short meditations to help bring stillness into the mind, strengthening of the respiratory system and rebalancing the energetic body.

Thursday 6:30pm - Winter Stretch & Unwind

To honour the slower pace of Winter, I've created a class that has been inspired by Yin Yoga.
We explore longer myofascial releases using the spiky ball to allow the body to soften and prepare for stretches.
We hold each stretch in a more passive way using bands and pillows for longer than in a regular class.
We take our time in the class to focus on working with our breath to allow the nervous system to completely relax.
A full mind and body experience to bring you back into balance.
