Pilates
Pilates is a form of exercise which focuses on core strength, stability, mobility, flexibility and posture. This helps to improve overall strength, fitness and wellbeing.
Pilates at Healing Flow
Pilates aims to strengthen the body evenly, with a particular emphasis on core strength to improve general fitness and wellbeing.
Exercises are performed in a flow of movement without the static poses associated with yoga.
There are many health benefits by practising pilates.
These include:
-
Increased strength, muscle tone, balance and flexibility
-
Mental and emotional balance
-
Improved posture when standing, sitting, sleeping or walking
-
Relief from pain caused by incorrect posture
-
Increased joint mobility
-
Reduced tension
-
Stress relief
At Healing Flow, we offer one-to-one sessions and classes. All our sessions are designed to teach you the necessary skills to empower you to practice independently.
One-to-One Pilates
During our one-to-one sessions, we develop and refine a pilates plan that is individual to you, much like having a personal trainer. This allows us to address any specific health matters or injuries.
You may choose to have more regular sessions to start with, to get you into the habit of pilates practice. Over time, you will become self-empowered to practice independently.
These sessions can also be shared with a group of friends (block booking only).
Is it for me?
Pilates is for everyone! One-to-one sessions are ideal if you have any specific issues you would like to address through Pilates.
If you find it difficult to practice alone, our one-to one tuition employs well tested strategies to motivate you both during and after sessions.
Benefits
In addition to the all-round health benefits of pilates, our on-to-one sessions can:
-
Empower and motivate you to practice independently
-
Meet your individual needs with a personalised plan

I've taught Pilates to many different people for 12 years. Pilates is my passion. It inspires me to see my students develop on their journey. I'm also a runner, cyclist and duathlete. I know first hand those troublesome areas we all experience whether we run, cycle, play sport or go to the gym. We can be careless with our mobility, stability & flexibility. Pilates can target those smaller muscles we neglect or find hard to reach, as well as targeting core strength, overall body strength & posture.
This is what I love about Pilates. It is the ultimate complement to any fitness or sport training to enhance performance, reduce injury and keep you generally healthy, well and active for longer. Pilates is great done as part of a balanced training or exercise programme or by itself.
Pilates combines mindfulness and movement, therefore develops body awareness and reduces anxiety. It's more than just a physical exercise. It can radically enhance mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Whatever your intention, Pilates will suit whatever that intention may be. Pilates is for everyone.
