What to expect from a Pilates class...
If you're unsure about what to expect or bring to your first PIlates class I've put together a few tips that might help, and make your first class as stress free as possible.
​
What should I wear?
You should wear comfortable clothing, such as a t-shirt with yoga or tracksuit trousers, make sure whatever you wear will allow you to breathe and stretch fully. We practise PIlates without shoes, so either barefoot or in socks.
​
What should I bring?
If you have your own mat, please bring it along, or let me know and I can supply mat. You can bring your phone into class, but please make sure it's turned off or on silent.
​
Should I learn anything before I come?
No, there is no need to learn or practise anything before your first class, everyone practices at their own pace. You're not expected to keep up with anyone and I make sure to pace each class depending on the level of the students in it.
​
What type of PIlates do you teach?
There are a variety of different styles of PIlates, including using machines to help stretch, but unless otherwise specified I teach mainly classic PIlates, which primarily involves standing and floor based exercises done on a mat.
