When, Where and How much?

Please bring your own mat with you. Any other equipment will be provided. You may also like to bring a water bottle and a small towel. 

Just bring your mat. I have spares should you forget yours.  Any small equipment (ie balls, magic circles) are provided.

Body Control Pilates (www.bodycontrolpilates.com) is recognised as a world-leading education provider for Pilates teaching.  Body Control Pilates is remarkably effective – and medically-approved. It is of an holistic nature, being based upon a well-constructed philosophical foundation. Central to the Method is ‘awareness of your own body’ and each and every exercise is built around its eight basic principles:   

Relaxation

Concentration

Co-ordination

Centreing

Alignment

Breathing

Stamina

Flowing Movements

It can be helpful for me as your teacher to see your alignment if you wear more fitted clothing, however my preference is for you to please wear what you feel comfortable in and have freedom to move in.  Shoes should not be worn during class and you may either be barefoot or wear socks. If you choose to wear socks, you are encouraged to choose some with ‘grip’ to ensure your safety. 

Clients are advised to seek medical advice before undertaking a new exercise programme. Pilates exercises are very safe, however your participation is at your own risk. You are encouraged to take exercises at your own pace and rest when you need to. It is your responsibility to be aware of your own capabilities and do only what you are comfortable with. If you have any doubts about the exercise suitability, you should refer back to your GP for advice.
