What is Pilates?
The Pilates exercise method was created by Created by Joseph Pilates in the 1920’s and helps participants achieve optimum balance between mind and body.
Pilates is based on a range of more than 500 exercises, which blend physical movements and positions, breathing regulation and mental training into a program designed to deliver holistic benefits.
Importantly, the Pilates method teaches participants greater awareness of the form and function of their bodies. As a result, the discipline can be applied throughout daily life for boosted strength, stability and mobility.
Due to the combination of a complex series of exercises involving multiple parts of the body, qualified instruction is essential, which is why Balanced Bodies use only APMA accredited professionals.
Pilates At Work:
Balanced Bodies are flexible with booking arrangements. We prefer to visit your premises and determine the optimal format for your session. We gauge factors such as the space available, lighting, number of participants and their skill level.
The next step is to decide whether you would like a one off session or a 6-8 week 'course' which we provide for groups of up to 12 participants.
What do you need?
We can provide you with towels and mats, or the preferred and ultimately cheaper option for course participants is to purchase a mat and towel of their own. We take group bookings for equipment purchases and are therefore able to provide you with products for well below standard retail prices.
Special Circumstances?
Balanced Bodies can cater for pre and post natal classes, injuries and disabilities. Please ensure that we are aware of any special needs and we will cater for the situation.
