What is Pilates?
Pilates is a intelligent form of exercise that integrates body and mind. Pilates uses unique exercises and sequences to bring alignment, posture and balance to the entire body. Pilates helps you to balance strength with flexibility to minimise undue stress across joints. Great emphasis is placed on correct breathing techniques to provide stability to movement and oxygenation to the entire body.

Class Types
Private Classes (1-3 people)
Do I need a private class? Private classes are great for a more personalised workout. In the mini-studio in McLaren Vale you can have a class all to yourself or workout with a friend or two for extra support. Private classes can complement a group class to be your second workout for the week. They are great if you do shift work so cannot always make a class at the same time every week. Class prices start from $25 per person. Read more...

Group mat classes in a friendly, supportive environment are a fun way to work out and a great way to commit to your health. They are still small groups with a maximum of 12 people so I can keep an eye on everyone. These classes are run in the community hall in McLaren Flat and prices start from $15. Read more...
