If you are new to Pilates, a huge welcome, you are in exactly the right place. This session sets the foundation and the fundamentals. Here we go through alignment, breathing and core engagement (all of which are intertwined) - take your time as there is quite a lot to absorb here - it will take time to incorporate these effectively but if you keep listening to the cues and staying present, it will click!

Optional Equipment: Magic Circle OR Mini Ball.

The Magic circle is amazing for adding in resistance but also giving us support and alignment and we play around with both of these elements in this session together. If you are new to the Magic Circle, be patient - sometimes it can take a while to connect to the positioning and how it feels but you'll get there! x

Optional equipment: Ankle weights

I can't figure out if its because I'd not long completed a hard workout of my own or if this was just har, so you'll have to let me know after you've done this one. We are loading the abs - working deep and superficial muscles and moving through this workout fairly quickly - not rushing but with pace. x

Powerhouse core workout. This workout is a reminder that progress only comes through making things occasionally harder so i want you to take the pressure off yourself being able to do everything at the hardest level in this workout. You are on your mat and that is what counts. We practice together to get that 1% better each time. No pressure, no perfection. Have fun and enjoy x

This workout is about giving some love to the parts of our bodies that are often neglected and yet carry us through life - our hips, hamstrings, and glutes. There are lots of variations and progressions so this is really about working within your current remit of movement and also challenging it if that feels good. Lets give our lower bodies the love they deserve x

Optional Equipment: Mini Ball + Band

These two pieces of equipment combined are amazing for really understanding what deep core engagement actually means and feels like. The ball de-stabilises the body, while the band adds in a resistance that means your core has to switch on even more. You will still get a great workout without either so don't worry. Haver fun and enjoy this session. x

This workout helps us identify exercises which target the superficial ab muscles and those that ignite the deep core. Both important, both relevant to a heathy body. The ball acts as our bit of resistance so if you aren't using this, you'll have to work a little harder in your core engagement work. Enjoy x

In line with our nutrition week - we are starting with a workout designed to aid digestion and relief any bloating or uncomfortable feeling in the core. Whether you suffer from this or not, its a great way to get the body moving and pay particular attention to strengthening and toning your abs - we enjoy all the planes of movement here for a dynamic and controlled workout! enjoy x

Short & super effective if you goal is to build a strong core! The ball allows you to work your core a lot harder - this workout will also feel hard in the hip flexors. Take your time and try and stay with me - this one is a burner!
