Welcome to The Pilates Practice
Pilates is a gentle form of exercise which builds strength, tones and stretches the body. It is entirely safe, even during pregnancy and is recommended for people with back or neck problems and sports injury. The end product is a perfectly balanced body with strong, well defined muscles, good posture and joint mobility.
At the Pilates Practice we specialise in machine-based Pilates using specially designed STOTT* Equipment, incorporating springs and pulleys which gently increase muscle resistance. We hold private lessons on a one-to-one basis, or small general classes for up to 4 people. On a one-to-one lesson the instructor guides you through a range of exercises until a level is reached where you are able to progress into a general class. You can then work at your own pace and level. For the beginner we recommend several lessons before going into a general class.
About Us
Your studio
The Pilates Practice is your personal exercise studio!
We hold an initial one-to-one session for everyone, followed by private classes (we recommend 3) and then general sessions where there are never more than four people in the studio under the supervision of a fully qualified instructor. Please note we are unable to offer ongoing private classes at peak studio times.
The studio has been designed with a calm, intimate atmosphere in mind. It is a million miles away from a large crowded intense gym.
Here you can focus on your personal exercise regime in your own time. And, whilst we encourage you to go as regularly as you can, you go when you want (appointments permitting) and only pay for the times you go.
Lessons
We hold private lessons on a one-to-one basis after which you start general classes. On a one-to-one session the instructor guides you through a range of exercises until a level is reached where you are able to progress to a general class where you can work at your own pace and level (but under continuing supervision).
We also offer Structural Integration treatments with Mike Doxey. These are deep tissue corrective treatments which are ideal for anyone with chronic or temporary joint or muscle pain or stiffness. For more info about Mike and his treatments please go to www.anatomytrains.net.
