The method
What is Pilates?
Pilates is a whole-body exercise method developed by Joseph Pilates during the early twentieth century.
Exercises focus on controlled movement, breathing, posture, strength and body awareness.
Rather than relying on fast or repetitive movements, Pilates asks you to concentrate on how your body moves.
Regular Pilates may help you
- Build core and whole-body strength
- Improve flexibility and mobility
- Improve balance and coordination
- Develop better posture and movement control
- Reduce muscular tension
- Increase body awareness
- Support general physical fitness
Exercises can be changed to suit different levels of experience and physical ability. If you have an injury, medical condition or concerns about joining a class, speak to Laura before booking.

Class sizes
