These courses are run at various times throughout the year.
Beginners and Beyond
Beginners classes are suitable for you if you have had some basic instruction in Pilates method from previous experience, via a Pilates Foundations Course, an introductory package or with your Physio following recovery from injury or pain.
Any Ability
Here we will build on the fundamental beginners Pilates exercises and will help you to further improve your postural control, breath awareness, strength, flexibility and balance. That being said, our Pilates Instructors will give options for these classes so that those people who have more experience can be continuously challenged.
Intermediate Ability
These classes will require you to work deeper with more intensity into increasingly more challenging Pilates repertoire. It is probably fair to say that you should have had regular Pilates practice and a reasonable degree of strength before attempting these advanced level classes.
