MAT - CLASSICAL PILATES
Joseph Pilates’ original syllabus taught with rhythm and tempo, aims to create perfect harmony between body and mind in order to stimulate the neuromuscular system and to promote a healthy physical structure. A good all round physical workout based on the six Pilates principles: Centering, Control, Breathing, Precision, Fluidity.

SCULPT
Combining a Mat Pilates class with small apparatus such as power circle, sticks, elastics, weights, rollers and balls. Great for upper-body strength, strengthening your core and muscle definition.
|
STRETCH
Stretch is a full body class with the aim to open your joints and move the fluids freely into spaces that are generally restricted. A calm class with lots of breathing to open and move your joints into health.
|
BALL
Pilates Ball class using large/ small balls, and rollers: excellent for postural stabilization, symmetry, control and precision. The Ball acts as an unstable surface, which promotes deep core stabilisation and activates pelvis floor muscles.
|
SENIOR SESSION
For those who prefer to move a little slower and who may have mobility issues. A very good workout at a pace where the body and mind can take a little more time to connect. Great for the aging population, those who may have a nervous system disorder and those returning after injury.
|
BARRE & STRETCH
The class is barefoot, with more repetitions, and small range of motion. This class helps sculpt your waist, buttocks and legs and will strengthen your core; you'll gain better perception of support through your feet and legs, too. Learn how to apply Pilates to an upright posture, a great class for both men and women looking for a fun way to exercise and add tone to their bodies.

PILATES ARC
Do you spend most of your day seated at a desk, in a car, or traveling? The traditional Pilates Baby Arch is an amazing apparatus that will both strengthen and open your hip and chest region, as well as your lower and upper back. Most of our days are spent using the front of our bodies in closed positions - we need to open up and stretch.
|
STICK
The Pilates Stick is a professional body sculpting system that allows you to do much of the work usually reserved for the Cadillac/Tower. It is a wonderful replacement with all the benefits that the much larger apparatus offers, it will challenge the body with the added use of springs and suspension. Extremely versatile and excellent for sculpting the hard to reach areas of the body.

BODHI SUSPENSION SYSTEM®
Like TRX, Bodhi works with a system of cords suspended from the ceiling, you'll build core strength and soon notice your balance and overall strength/stability improve. No experience necessary. An excellent way to add variety to your workouts and challenge yourself with gravity. A must for the desk bound or sportive.

GYROKINESIS®
Created by Juliu Horvath, GYROKINESIS works the joints and muscles through rhythmic and undulating exercises with corresponding breathing patterns.

STICK WALKING
Stick walking (Nordic) is all about re-patterning your dynamic posture. We learn to walk naturally through trial and error and by mimicking our parents and relatives, and this worked for a while. With time we create habits and this is reflected in our active daily walking - good and bad! The outcome of the collective stick walking is to become more efficient walkers.
