PILATES AT ENHANCE

WHAT IS PILATES

Pilates is a method of exercise that consists of low-impact movements designed to improve flexibility, strength and endurance. Pilates was created over 100 years ago by a man called Joseph Pilates and today it is practiced worldwide. Pilates has an emphasis on postural alignment, core strength and muscle balance that can help to improve pain and general well-being.

The classes at Enhance are kept small, to ensure that it can be tailored to suit each individual and so that assistance can be provided to everyone.

PILATES AT ENHANCE

At Enhance Physiotherapy we offer mat classes and reformer Pilates. As mentioned previously the classes are only small to ensure that attention is given to all participants. The class will incorporate the use of body weight exercises, along with the use equipment such as; resistance bands, rings and Pilates balls. All exercises performed during the classes are modifiable to accommodate new participants, but can also be made more challenging for our more experienced participants.

 

All you need to bring to the class is a“can-do attitude”, a water bottle, sweat towel and grip socks if you already own them (they aren’t essential).
