Our 55-minute group Mat Pilates classes are thoughtfully designed to help you build strength, improve flexibility, boost mobility, and support better posture. Each session begins with a gentle warm-up, followed by exercises designed to strengthen your core, improve mobility, and relax your mind. You'll leave feeling revitalized and relaxed. With regular practice, you'll not only feel the physical benefits but enjoy a lift in your mental wellbeing too.
To keep things varied and effective, we use a range of small equipment in class like resistance bands, balls, weights, sliders, rollers, and magic circles — all provided for you (we also proviode mats).
