UPCOMING EVENTS
Pilates Studio Induction Workshops
Our studio induction workshops are the perfect place to get started with us, and discover which class/es may be the best fit for you.
What’s in store:
Learn a bit more about the Pilates method and how the different elements, such as Mat, Reformer and other apparatus work together to help you progress in the right way for your body
Experience the Reformer: Learn what the Reformer is and how to use it safely. Have a go at some of the foundation Classical Pilates exercises on the Reformer and discover how to tailor exercises to your body where needed.
Discover the Tower: The Tower is part of the apparatus system, designed to help you focus on key areas of the body. Its metal frame with sprung attachments will offer support and challenge strength. Learn how to use the Tower safely, how to adapt for your body and get a feel for what this apparatus offers.
Uncover the mat: These days it’s all about the glamour of the apparatus, but the mat work is where the real challenge is when done correctly. No springs or apparatus to support you, it is where you really put your body to the test! You will cover some of the Classical mat work exercises and start to see how the mat and apparatus work together.
***As an extra bonus, you will also receive access to our video “Finding the Foundations”, a short mat based video that you can follow at home to help you understand some of the fundamental connections in the body that we refer to in our Pilates practice and how to find them.***

Mind, Body & Spirit Members Event: “Architect of Happiness”
Enjoy an enlightening and empowering Mind, Body & Sprit Member's Event, centered around being the architect of your own wellbeing.
What’s in store:
Welcome Reception: A chance to connect with other members of our Pilates community as you enjoy light refreshments.
Feet as your Foundations (Mind): A mini workshop exploring our feet as our foundations. Discover some of the wonderful tools Joseph Pilates created and used to help us work our feet and explore the connections between the foot and the rest of the body.
Pilates by Design (Body): A flowing mat session taking you through the “architecture” of a Pilates class, from setting the foundations to the finishing flourishes.
Special Guest Talk (Spirit): Be introduced to a psychological framework that helps us create the conditions to reach our full potential and sustain wellbeing. Explore how the mind and and body work together, and Rachel will guide you through a short, practical activity to help you feel what it’s like to slow down, listen to your instincts and give yourself permission to put yourself first.
We hope you will leave this event with a clearer understanding of how your everyday choices shape your happiness, and a reminder that you really are in control as the architect of your own happiness, both in and outside of the Pilates studio.
