CLASS TYPES

Private sessions are truly the best way to start this journey. Private Pilates allows you to work at a pace that suits you best—whether that means going slow and steady or fast and furious. It’s all up to you!

Choosing the right class for your current ability and primary goals is essential to your safety and progress. We prefer people always stay on the side of caution and realise that consistency over maximal effort is going to produce the best results.

During new a clients introductory privates, instructors will advise which class types are best for them as well as offer any suggestions for when to reduce the difficulty and take it a bit slower (if any).  The below descriptions are in order of difficulty starting with the easiest and progressing to most challenging.

FEEL GOOD REFORMER

This is a restorative class which focuses on the healing aspect of Pilates instead of the challenging strength, coordination and control aspects.

Range & ease of motion: an important key to vitality. Feel good reformer classes will aim to restore motion and add length…not only to the spine, but in all of our joints and muscles. The class will also support becoming present, calm & aware which is great for combating stress.

Being conscious of your breath also helps lower stress levels, anxiety, and reduces tension.  Detox, relax, stretch and calm the mind in Feel-Good Reformer — it might be just what your body needs once a week to ‘come home’ & touch back in with the needs of your mind & body!

Perfect for those new to the reformer and Pilates too.

STRETCH THERAPY

Stretch Therapy (ST) is a comprehensive system that includes stretching, fascial remodelling, strengthening, neural re-patterning, and relaxation. The goals are grace and ease, and this is experienced as enhanced awareness and elegance in movement. Taught as a 75 minutes mat class, Stretch therapy teaches inflexible clients how to work with their bodies and build confidence in it’s ability to move further and deeper without injury.

Suitable for all levels with a focus on the stretching beginner. 

50+ REFORMER PILATES 

These classes are designed to restore health, strength and well-being for our Seniors clients. A mix between Reformer Fundamentals and Feel Good Reformer without any elements that put excess strain on joints or are potentially less safe. These classes simply aim to make you move with more ease and feel  younger!

REFORMER BASICS

Designed for the novice Pilates student, this class focuses on the core Pilates movements and aims to build a strong foundation of mind/body connection, good form and understanding of the pilates principles. More time is spent explaining and educating as well as building foundational strength.

Improving your Pilates IQ is the fastest way to fix imbalances, gain balanced strengthen and improve your flexibility. Once you can control your body well, understand your limits and know how Pilates works best you will see and feel the results happening so much faster!
 

REFORMER 1

Reformer ONE is a building block on top of our Basics class, although the level maybe similar, more variety of exercises and challenges to your coordination, strength, balance and endurance are added. These classes are typically well rounded to continue to balance your overall physical wellbeing and abilities.

This class is recommended for clients who may lack one or some of the elements that are challenged in the group reformer classes including strength, balance, coordination and stamina.  A strong foundation is the fastest way to progress!

Perfect for those new to the reformer and Pilates too.

 

REFORMER 2

These classes build on Reformer ONE by challenging your strength, endurance, balance, coordination, flexibility and mind/body connection in every way possible! Suitable for most clients who are in relatively good health, have reasonable mobility, balance and a basic understanding of the Pilates principles.

TOWER / MAT

A more intimate group class featuring the Pilates Tower apparatus and a raised cushioned leather Mat base. Much like our Reformer ONE classes, this class focuses on deepening the students Pilates IQ and mind body connection while strengthening the whole body. These classes are a great compliment to the reformer program, opening up an entire new range of exercises and movements.

GROUP CIRCUIT

Held in the other studio room. These circuit style classes have 5 “stations” utilising any of the equipment as a station including Mats, Reformers, Towers, Chairs, Jumpboards, Cadillac, Arcs, Ladder Barrel and more.

There will be a maximum of 10 clients per class with 2 per station. Each station will consist of 4 movements and you go through the whole circuit twice. Open to all clients with a good understanding of the Pilates principles who like to sweat, have a chat and work hard!
 

We recommend clients be very familiar with the Pilates principles with approximately 20 reformer classes before joining this class. 

PREGNANT WOMEN

*All women come in different shapes, sizes and physical abilities. Pregnant women are no different, in fact, their needs can change throughout the course of their pregnancy! For this reason, we don’t attempt to offer a “one size fits all” class for pregnant women. Instead, ladies can join whichever class/es suit there needs best. All of our instructors are able to offer modifications where and when needed!
