Individual / Private Sessions

The ideal way to start Pilates Matwork, particularly if you are in recovery from injury. It provides the opportunity for a completely individual exercise routine to be developed.

Personal sessions can also be used as a springboard, working towards joining a larger group class.

General Pilates

The level of this class depends on the participants. Most exercises are done lying or sitting on the floor. Emphasis on abdominals and precise movements lead to increased postural support and ease of movement.

Restorative Pilates

A class geared towards beginners and those who are starting to exercise again after injury or who are dealing with ongoing non-acute issues.

Participants are encouraged to work at their own pace. You may be asked to check with your doctor/physiotherapist before joining the class. Many of the exercises are done lying on the floor so participants must be able to get onto and off the floor without assistance.

A telephone conversation with Miranda is required before your first lesson.

Vertical Pilates

A class of standing work based on Pilates principles. We play with balance and leg strength.

Because we spend so much of our lives upright this class makes 'real life' connections between Pilates core strength and daily activities.

Pilates with Props

Small equipment, such as resistance bands and foam rollers, are used in this class to add another dimension to the work. There is emphasis on arms and upper back strength.

This class is suitable for beginners or those looking to expand their experience of Pilates.

Moms and babies

Want to regain some fitness after pregnancy? Come and join this safe and effective class for new mums.

Babies are welcome until they are mobile. The babies do not participate in the class, but we try to keep them amused while we get some work done - even if it means signing songs while exercising! Goals include toning abs, bums and pelvic floor.

You must have your doctor's permission to start class and wait until 6 weeks after birth to participate.

Pilates for Yoga teachers and enthusiasts

You've done yoga, you've got flexibility and body awareness... so how about trying Pilates? Yoga and Pilates are different systems of movement which overlap in many ways. This class is designed to enhance your Yoga and offer a new perspective on your practice.

Control of flexibility, advanced movement patterns and flow are all key elements of this class.

As teachers it is vital that we nourish ourselves both physically and mentally. Teaching is hard on the body so let this be your treat.
