Mat Pilates – The Original

Mat Pilates is a group class of 11 participants maximum per class (Covid -19 Restrictions in place), performing all the Original Joseph Pilates exercises without apparatus. On a mat, we use small equipment if needed such as: Dyna Bands (or Towel), Tennis Balls, Bender Balls, Blocks, Pilates Magic Circle and your own body weight as your maximum resistance. Pilates teaches you to move as a one body from your powerhouse muscles. Classes are also great fun, with exercise sequences that encourage you to always move to the next level if your body permits it. A variety of exercises are programmed to challenge you. These classes are a great social activity, as all group class participants are always willing to share their experiences and have a great time.

“With the right instruction and guidance, some or all of the Pilates recommendations can demonstrably improve anybody’s health and fitness levels” – Joseph Pilates, 1945
