L 1 Introduction to Pilates: Beginner’s 5-week course
with Clare Bannister
We run this course regularly throughout the year. This 5-week course is the perfect place to begin if you’re new to Pilates or have not practiced Pilates using the Pilates apparatus classes we offer at the studio: Reformer and Tower.
The course runs for 5 consecutive weeks. On the first 3 weeks of the course you will work on the Pilates Reformer. The Pilates Reformer is a great place to start as it provides feedback on body alignmnet and teaches you how to connect with the deep muscles of the core. You will learn some of the essential repertoire of exercises.
On week 4 and 5 we will work on the Pilates Tower and matwork. Practicing on all pieces of Pilates apparatus provides a depth, variety, and specificity of movement that simply cannot be replicated with just one piece, or with mat work alone. Pilates is not about individual exercises or apparatus, it’s about how you move. Practicing across apparatus ensures you achieve the basic principles of Pilates and will give you confidence to attend the full range of classes we offer at the studio.
On completion of the course you can start to attend the L1 Beginners or L2 Open level classes on the timetable.

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.

A journey through the Chakras
with Karren
Join Karren for a 2-hour journey through the seven chakra centres, exploring the balance between the yin and yang energies within us.
We’ll move between energising, dynamic practices and slower, more restorative Yin postures, using the chakras as a pathway to explore themes of grounding, creativity, confidence, connection, expression, intuition and surrender.
Expect movement, stillness, breath, reflection and plenty of space to simply be.
A chance to pause, reconnect and explore what balance looks and feels for you right now.
Suitable for all levels.
