Pilates

The beauty of Pilates is that anybody can do it. A mat based class that increases core strength which will in turn help improve flexibility, co-ordination, build a stronger back and over time will create a better posture.

Flexibility and strength can decrease as we get older for many reasons. For example a desk job means you are sat down most of the day, a manual job could mean heavy lifting and repetitive movements - this can affect your posture which in turn creates imbalances in your body. Ultimately we end up with pain and stiffness in our joints and muscles, this is where Pilates can help. Pilates helps to re align the body and will create a strong core which will give you a stronger back. Joseph Pilates himself once said that you are only as old as your spine. This is a gentle class on the mat and alternatives are given so is suitable for anyone. You can bring your own mat if you wish or I can provide you with one if not. Please let me know of any health issues prior to class.

Zumba Gold is suitable for anybody who wants to join a fun dance class at a lower level of intensity.

Don't worry if you have no co-ordination, come and give it a try. It's all about having fun! I incorporate several dance rhythms from around the world in each class. You can work at your own level at all times, do as much or as little as you like. Please let me know of any health issues prior to class.
