Pilates!
Pilates is a safe form of exercise which aims to make the body stronger, more mobile and balanced. Sessions focus on the whole body, with the emphasis on posture, core stability, control and coordination. As each exercise can be adapted to match the individual, it suits many different levels of fitness and mobility. Participants often leave a class feeling more aware of their body, stronger, taller, and with a greater sense of well-being.
