Not at all! Pilates is great full body conditioning exercise for everyone, you don't have to already be fit or 'in shape' to participate. The exercises have different layers to them in order to accommodate everyone's fitness and mobility levels.

You can start exercising after your 6-week check with your doctor if you have had a normal delivery without complications. If you have had a Caesarean section there is a longer period of recovery. Once you have had sign-off from your physician to confirm you are safe to exercise, I can ensure you work at a steady level of intensity and pace to build your strength gradually and safely.

This would be entirely dependent on the type of injury you have sustained. Please get in touch with me to discuss further.

Pilates is suitable for children, however, the classes currently available on the timetable are not suitable for under 16's. The benefits for Pilates in children is excellent. Correcting poor posture from overuse of tablets, phones and laptops, building strength in their growing bodies to support their joints. Pilates is also excellent for the prevention and recovery of injury, so children who partake in sports greatly benefit from undertaking Pilates. If you work for a school, or have children at school you believe would benefit from classes held at their school, please do get in touch.
