Why RevitaliseU-Kent

Pilates that works with your body

Pilates can help you build strength, improve mobility and develop better control of your movement.

At RevitaliseU-Kent, classes are kept small so Laura can see how you are moving and adapt exercises where needed.

You do not need to be flexible or experienced to start.

Most classes are mixed ability, with different versions of each exercise available. You can work at the level that feels right for you while still progressing over time.

Meet Laura

RevitaliseU-Kent is run by Pilates instructor Laura, who understands personally how much regular movement can affect everyday life.

Laura started Pilates after experiencing pelvic girdle and lower back pain following the birth of her second child. After seeing how Pilates helped her build core strength and move more comfortably, she decided to train as an instructor.

  • 2011Working as a massage therapist, building a practical understanding of movement and muscular tension.
  • 2020Trained with the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute.
  • 2021Teaching mixed-ability Pilates classes across Sittingbourne and Lynsted.

That experience gives her a practical understanding of movement, muscular tension and the different needs people bring to a class.

More about Laura

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

Small classes,
real attention

You will not find large classes where everyone is expected to complete exactly the same exercise. Keeping groups small gives Laura more time to watch your technique and provide individual guidance.

Exercises can be made easier or harder depending on your experience, mobility and strength.

If you are completely new to Pilates, Laura will introduce you to the basic principles so you understand breathing, posture and core activation before progressing.
