Testimonials
"My profession is very physical, I have to move bodies around and apply a lot of force through my body. Old injuries - surgery to knee and shoulder were starting to cause problems with the rest of my body. I would try to go to keep fit classes but would just get injured again. I found out about Central Pilates and got in touch, I have not looked back. Claire's knowledge is outstanding and her ability to personalise for each client is second to none. Her classes are always varied and you really understand what you are being asked to do and feel the results straight away. Highly recommended."

"I used to think that stress was an excuse for not being able to cope with situations, claimed by wimps. Then a couple of years ago it hit me without recognising it. I also had a couple of sports injuries that I ignored and accepted as part of getting older. Read more on our testimonials page "

Where to Start
Beginners and Advanced Pilates are worlds apart.
As a beginner (even if you are as fit as a fiddle) it is strongly advised to start right at the very beginning. In a beginners class the pace is slower, we break exercises down more, go through the breathing and engagement every week and most importantly teach at a level so that you feel comfortable and connected to what it is you are meant to be doing.
NO NEED TO HAVE PRIVATE SESSIONS - in a beginners class you are perfectly fine to come along without any prior experience. Honestly, do not overthink it, just grab your car keys and come down. We are all like minded people here and we are all at a pilates class for the same reason…to stretch, fix the body, and relax. Oh, did I just say relax! Yes…Relax. At the end of every session I like to do a small section on relaxation exercises maybe focusing on the diaphragmatic breathing or stretching those hamstrings.

Frequently asked questions
I have never tried Pilates before, do I need to have a 1-1 private lesson before?
As long as you have no major health problems and can move up and down to the floor with ease then there is no need for a 1-1 private lesson.
Do I need to bring anything along with me to my first class?
If you already own your own mat , please bring this along. We have some spare mats if you just wish to try a class out first before purchasing your own mat.
In our Pilates classes we use long resistance bands, foam rollers, pilates circle, small ball. loop bands and Yoga blocks. We provide all of these.
Over time we recommend purchasing some blocks.
