Why should I do a one to one induction?

  • As we are physiotherapists we would strongly recommend that you use the free one to one induction which is included in your membership.
  • This gives you an individual session with a Pilates instructor where they can go over the basic Pilates exercises with you, giving corrections where necessary, and discuss any pre-existing health conditions you have which may effect your exercise needs.

Can I do my induction in person?

  • Absolutely! We can offer your free individual induction as an online video consultation or as an in-clinic induction. The choice is yours.

What makes this Pilates membership clinical?

  • All of our Pilates instructors are chartered physiotherapists. Their greater understanding of the body and your individual conditions allows them to tailor Pilates classes which are suitable for all.

What do I do if I have questions for the instructor?

  • Please get in touch with us if you have any questions, we would love to hear from you.

Do I need any equipment to join in with the classes?

  • We would recommend that you have the following equipment at home:
    • A mat (or comfortable carpet which you are happy to do exercises on)
    • A head block (If you don’t have one of these a book or folded up towel works just as well)
    • A soft Pilates ball (if you don’t have one of these a cushion can often be used instead)
    • A piece of resistance band (if you don’t have a piece of resistance band you can often substitute in weights/tins to add some resistance to your exercises)
    • Hand weights, either 0.5KG or 1KG (if you don’t have these you can use tins to add some weight to your exercises)
  • You can purchase these items through our website, either as individual items or as a bundle for greater discounts.
