Beginner’s Tower and Matwork Pilates
with Sandra Dent
We run this course regularly throughout the year. It will introduce you to the Pilates Tower apparatus, Pilates Matwork and the basic principles of Pilates.
The Pilates Tower is an extremely versatile piece of apparatus, which is based on the Cadillac – another principle piece of PIlates apparatus. The Tower is suitable for beginners to more advanced practitioners. Like the reformer, the varying spring tension and resistance on the tower will help you deepen the connection to your powerhouse, build strength, flexibility, control and balance to the body. When using the Pilates equipment you’ll feel the progression and connection to your body very quickly.
On completion of the course you can start to attend the ‘Open level’ or ‘Open/beginners’ classes on the timetable.
You can book the Beginner’s 5-week Reformer course and the Beginner’s 5-week Tower and Matwork course together for our ‘Full Studio 10 session course’. This really is the ‘gold standard’ in learning the Pilates Method of Exercise.

Postnatal Pilates 5-week Course
with Clare
This is a small group course: Max 6 mums and babies. Each course will run for 5 consecutive weeks. The class is a mat/equipemnt based pilates class developed to help mum’s postnatal recovery. The Pilates method of exercise is the perfect way to help mum’s reconnect with their body, regain strength and support in the abdominal muscles and pelvic floor.
Each mum’s postnatal recovery is different. We would generally ask you to wait 6-8 weeks post delivery from a vaginal delivery and 10-12weeks post C-section, before attending the class. You way want to check with your midwife/doctor before starting exercise. We will check for Daistasis Recti (separation of the abdominal muscles) in the class.
Yoga Masterclass – Backbends
with Anna
Explore your practice in a two-hour masterclass with Anna, where you will have opportunity to work on your spine and posterior chain. Backbends, shoulders, and complimentary twists will be the focus.
Time will be given for Pranayama and guided meditation. Anna will offer hands-on adjustments throughout and use props to support Asana. The Masterclass will complement Anna’s regular class, which is from 9 to 10 a.m. on the same day, so you can attend both.
Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra to Balance the Nervous System
with Karren
Our nervous system is the master regulator of the body. When the nervous system is balanced and calm we experience a felt sense of well-being that we experience in the body.
If the nervous system is triggered into an intense stress response, or whether the body is dealing with long-term stress and adrenal fatigue, it can be difficult to get into the body out of this sympathetic nervous response and back to feeling calm and at ease.
So many external factors can lead us to feeling stressed and overwhelmed, triggering our nervous system into overdrive. However, this 90 minute workshop will help you relax and calm your mind and body by using breath work, Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra. This will be the perfect opportunity to let go and feel more connected to you whole self. I look forward to seeing you there.
