Types of Classes

CALM AND RESTORE with Louise

A gentle pause for your body and mind.

Our Calm & Restore class is a once-a-month offering designed for those who need to slow down, reconnect with their bodies, and find calm in the midst of stress, tension, or ongoing pain.

Led by our compassionate physiotherapists, this class blends restorative movement, breathwork, gentle stretching, and mindful body awareness to help calm the nervous system and create space for healing—both physically and emotionally.

This session is ideal for you if you’re:

  • Living with persistent pain or pelvic pain

  • Feeling overwhelmed, anxious or emotionally depleted

  • Managing fatigue, burnout, or recovery from illness

  • Wanting to slow down and reconnect without pressure or intensity

  • Seeking a nervous system reset that leaves you grounded and restored

All movements are gentle, supportive, and tailored to meet you where you are—no expectations, no pressure, just space to breathe and restore.

Held monthly SATURDAY 2 PM

CLINICAL PILATES

Our Clinical Pilates sessions are perfect for those recovering from injury, managing persistent pain, pregnancy or postpartum or dealing with complex conditions that require individualised support. These sessions are kept small and designed by a physiotherapist with a deep understanding of both rehabilitation and movement science.

Using the Pilates reformer and other equipment, we guide you through exercises that focus on control, alignment, and gradual strength building—all tailored to your specific needs, pain levels, and recovery goals.

These sessions are ideal if you:

  • Are transitioning from hands-on physio treatment to active rehabilitation

  • Have ongoing pain or limitations that require close monitoring

  • Are rebuilding strength after surgery, injury, or long periods of inactivity

  • Feel unsure about joining a group class and want focused, professional support

  • Need a structured and safe return to movement and fitness

Sessions progress at your pace, with constant guidance to ensure correct form and load, helping you move with confidence and purpose. 

ADVANCED PILATES

Our Advanced Reformer Pilates class is designed for those who are ready to push their practice to the next level. This dynamic session blends strength, control, balance, and flexibility with more complex movement patterns and progressive resistance training.

Led by our experienced women’s health physiotherapists, you’ll be safely guided through advanced sequences that test your stability, enhance your core strength, and build full-body coordination—all while staying connected to your breath and body awareness.

This class is ideal if you’ve already built a foundation through Clinical Pilates or have prior experience on the reformer and are looking to:

  • Increase muscular strength and endurance

  • Improve dynamic stability and control

  • Elevate your Pilates practice with confident progression

  • Work towards your fitness goals in a safe and supportive environment

MUMS AND BUBS 

Our Mums & Bubs Pilates class is specially designed for postpartum recovery, helping you rebuild core and pelvic floor strength, improve posture, and gently return to movement in a safe and supportive space.

Led by our women’s health physiotherapists, this class supports you through the physical challenges of early motherhood—whether you had a vaginal or caesarean birth. Babies are welcome and included, making it easier to prioritise your health without needing to arrange extra care.

Enjoy a combination of reformer and matwork Pilates, with exercises tailored to your birth history, recovery stage, and individual needs.

This class is perfect for:

  • Strengthening pelvic floor and deep core muscles

  • Managing abdominal separation (diastasis recti)

  • Addressing back, neck, or pelvic pain

  • Enhancing confidence in your postpartum body

  • Connecting with other mums in a supportive environment

Led by our physiotherapists, this class blends mat-based exercises, light resistance training, balance and coordination work, and gentle dance-inspired movement to promote bone health, cardiovascular fitness, and confidence in everyday movement.

This is a vibrant and welcoming class that supports:

  • Bone density and joint health (ideal for those with osteopenia or osteoporosis)

  • Cardiovascular endurance

  • Balance and fall prevention

  • Cognitive coordination and rhythm

  • Social connection and motivation

Whether you’re just starting out or looking to maintain your fitness in a supportive environment, this class offers a safe and empowering way to move your body and nurture your wellbeing.
