Pilates Information for Beginners

Welcome to Pilates! Within these pages there is lots of information about Pilates, but if you do have any questions, please do feel free to call or email.

Power of Pilates matwork classes run continuously in blocks of 7 weeks and you are welcome to join at any point within the 7 weeks with a pro rata payment. Matwork classes focus on a series of movements incorporating strength, flexibility and mobility. The exercises are progressive and safe, allowing you to work at your own pace with an emphasis on technique and individual progress.

Beginners are encouraged to join a Mixed Ability class which provides an ideal environment for you to become familiar with Pilates as it caters for all abilities. There are often several other beginners within your class and you are encouraged to work at your own level of fitness and ability.

If you are a complete beginner to Pilates, starting Pilates on the advice from a medical professional, or just a little daunted by joining a new class, I would recommend a 1:1 alongside, or prior, to your course.
