WHAT IS MODIFIED PILATES?

Modified Pilates is an exercise system that strengthens the core muscles of the spine, pelvis and shoulder area and is taught by Chartered Physiotherapists. It is designed for the clinical population, i.e. for people with some element of biomechanical or neurological dysfunction, as well as for the healthy population wanting to improve their strength, flexibility, coordination, balance and posture.

It is a safe, slow-paced form of exercise, with an emphasis on correct spine and pelvis position as well as on breathing and relaxation. We cater for all levels of ability form complete beginners to a more fast-paced advanced class, as well as pre / post-natal classes and a more gentle Seniors class with a focus on osteoporosis prevention/care.
