WHY PILATES?

I truly believe that Pilates is for everyone and once you start, you will see the benefits for yourself as you become more aware of how your body moves and learn to focus on the areas which need improving.

Pilates is not just about the physical benefits, many people make new friends and connections, and we all need social connection to maintain a healthy mind.

Pilates focuses on core strength, improving posture, balance, and flexibility, which translates into greater ease and freedom of movement in your everyday life, or enhanced performance in your chosen sport.

Not only can Pilates help to alleviate pain and discomfort, but it can also contribute to a greater overall sense of well-being. 

The use of breath, focus and concentration may reduce any feeling of stress and enables you to really pay attention to how you are moving.

Key Benefits:
