Pilates

 

 

Pilates is a system of mental and physcial conditioning that connects and uses the the whole body with aim of improving and sustainging fitness and well being.

 

Pre-natal Pilates

 

Pilates during pregnancy focuses on correct breathing, strengthening of your tummy, pelvic floor and back muscles, good posture and relaxation.

​

This helps to reduce back pain, increase support of bladder, bowel and growing uterus and helps your body cope with pregnancy induced postural changes and discomforts.

Post-natal Pilates

 

Postnatal pilates is designed to help you recover from giving birth. 

​

Sessions focus on checking (and correcting if there is one) the gap between the 'six pack' muscles, the so-called Diastasis Recti, reconnecting back to the deep tummy muscles, pelvic floor, diaphragm and back muscles. Strengthening these muscles will help you cope with the physical and emotional challenges of being a new mum and will assist you getting back in shape.
