Pilates FAQs

What is Modified Pilates?
Pilates is a mind-body exercise technique that emphasises the importance of moving from a strong central core of muscles around your lower back and pelvis. The original technique was developed by its founder Joseph Pilates over the course of his lifetime (1880-1967). This system of exercise is gaining recognition in the medical and fitness worlds alike for management of postural problems and many types of injuries. Modified Pilates is a rehabilitation programme devised by the APPI (Australian Physiotherapy & Pilates Institute). The physiotherapists who run our classes are trained by the APPI. It is particularly suitable for people with health problems such as back or neck pain and also for those that find “normal” Pilates too challenging. Although many of our customers are fit and healthy and prefer the close supervision we offer. The Matwork programme is based around 34 exercises. You will practice different combinations of these in your programme. You will progress over the course of your sessions by enhancing your “core stability” (the control of the muscles of your trunk) and your spinal mobility. |
What to expect
Before starting a course of Pilates we recommend you undergo a detailed personal consultation where the physiotherapist will examine your posture and movement to identify specific areas for you to work on. You will then be given some basic exercises to practice in preparation for your programme whether that be a 1 to 1 or as part of a class, which can be arranged. This ensures that you will get the best from attending your sessions. 1 to 1 sessions or Group Classes
1 to 1 sessions last around 45 minutes. Classes are run externally and details can be given on request. |
