Pilates is ideal for improving general fitness. Our Teacher focuses on gentler Pilates exercises, which aim to improve balance and posture as well as muscle tone. They are suitable for absolute beginners and more experienced participants.

Laura Gornell, our Pilates instructor, has over 20 years of teaching experience. Her knowledge and skills will take you through a series of exercises that can be adapted to suit all levels of fitness, in a safe and friendly environment.

Physical exercise is one of the most effective ways of positively influencing our health. It keeps us happy and helps to maintain our independence.

During the natural ageing process, we lose balance, strength and flexibility. Introducing regular ‘PILATES’ exercises into your daily life can help us to improve and maintain all these areas of fitness.

To try your first taster session – please contact the Leader above. You will need to bring with you:

  • Mat
  • Small towel / cushion
  • Water

Courses must be booked and paid for before each term.

More information is available about Pilates from the Pilates Foundation website.
