Term 2 Pilates Online
A new term of myphysio classes have just begun and with the COVID pandemic we have moved online!
This was very successful towards the end of Term 1 so we are continuing it, most likely well beyond the pandemic! And… with it being online it opens up our very popular classes up to more people.
We have a range of classes that we teach, our foundation class being the Pilates class, followed by a stePilates class and finally a Piloga class, you get the theme, it all started with Pilates and then we blended some other disciplines in.
Our Pilates classes are a range of mainly mat-based exercises based on the work of Joseph Pilates. Predominantly working on the core stabilising muscles of the trunk, it incorporates smooth, controlled floor exercises. Our exercises combined with our breathing method ensures you are working at submaximal loading and maintaining control so that you are protecting and supporting the pelvic floor and other potential herniations. A stronger deep abdominal core means that you will have better muscle efficiencies and movements.
Pilates is ideal for improving overall well-being, injury rehabilitation and prevention, and is suited to augment gym or sports fitness programmes, it takes time and commitment. It would be classed as resistance training rather than cardiovascular training.
Our stePilates class has emerged from us doing the Pinc NEXT STEPS programme, a cancer rehabilitation programme aimed at getting people who have had a cancer diagnosis confident to return to group exercise. The class combines the best pilates, yoga and cardiovascular exercises for a workout that is specifically designed to help with strength, flexibility and stamina.
stePilates is ideal for improving strength and mobility, increasing energy levels, strengthening core muscles and improving posture, improving fitness, improving breathing and reducing stress. It ticks the box for cardiovascular, resistance and relaxation training.
Our Piloga classe takes the best of both Pilates and Yoga practices in one class, with the complete mind and body benefits. The class is a mix between yoga poses and pilates mat exercises and will finish with a relaxation.
Piloga is ideal for increasing strength and flexibility, toning core muscles and developing lean muscle mass and rejuvenating the body and mind. It ticks the box for cardiovascular, resistance and relaxation training.
So... if you’ve always wanted to try these classes but we haven’t had the space or the times haven’t suited you, NOW is the time to join our online classes for Term 2.
