Pilates Classes in Derbyshire and the Peak District. Serving Bakewell, Matlock,

movement patterns… by identifying and activating correct muscles, we can move
optimally and reduce aches & pains. Pilates is fantatsic for postural
correction, improving stability, strength, balance and flexibility. Consistent
and regular Pilates sees fantastic results. Many professional athletes choose
Pilates to strengthen their core and improve performance. Lessons learned on the
mat will help you excel or rehabilitate. WHAT IS PILATES? Pilates is a series of
exercises created by the German born Joseph Pilates in the 1920s. His method
aimed to improve posture and strengthen the core – the powerhouse of the body –
which helps with balance and gives our limbs a solid base from which to push,
lift and perform dynamic movement. Modern science has enhanced Joe’s repertoire
making it safer and more applicable to our bodies. I teach Standing Pilates, Mat
Pilates, and Chair Pilates for all age groups and specialisms. All bodies can
achieve in a Pilates class. Group classes are a great way to achieve consistency
of Pilates practice, and 1:1 sessions can complement your training by assessing
specifics in your posture and function. Pilates exercises can be broken down or
layered together to increase or decrease difficulty.
