Who can attend Pilates classes?
Pilates is for people of any age, genre or physical condition, including pregnant women and / or the elderly.
Poor Posture
Pilates is great for those with desk jobs. Prolonged sitting may lead to back and neck pain, as well as poor posture. Pilates is great for improving your posture and stretching out any painful muscles.
Rehabilitation and Injuries
Clinical Pilates is beneficial for those recovering from injury, surgery and when undertaking rehabilitation for persistent or chronic pain. Pilates can help you to regain your strength, motor control and balance in a safe and supervised environment.
Pregnancy
Prenatal Pilates prepares you for labor and delivery, sets you up for recovery, promotes pelvic floor health, and helps prevent or manage diastasis. Pilates can also help with postpartum recovery by improving muscle strength and posture.
Older Adults
As we age, balance and strength often decrease. However, Pilates is great for maintaining and improving strength as you age. Also, being taught in a safe and supervised environment, prevents the risk of injury.
