muscles, lengthen the muscles and focus
on simply breathing better. The classes all
have complete cross sections of abilities
and very often people with injuries or who
are pregnant are amongst them. There
are many variations on the postures we’re
using and we encourage mind and body
awareness so everyone works to their own
pace and ability. Pilates can be started at
any age and at any fitness level, for great
results as little as one class per week can
make the difference to your body. The
results are addictive!
