Pilates Lessons

What is Pilates? 

Pilates is an exercise method, designed to elongate, strengthen and restore the body to balance. 

Based upon an anatomical understanding of the body's muscular and skeletal systems, the Pilates teacher creates a comprehensive exercise programme for the client. Classes will focus on specific areas individually whilst using exercises that integrate the whole body to re-educate and restore it to optimum muscular and skeletal function.

 It is this holistic approach that sets Pilates apart from many other forms of exercise. Osteopaths, physiotherapists and general practitioners recommend Pilates as one of the safest forms of exercise today.  Pilates can be beneficial for just about everyone, regardless of age and fitness level. 

There are two Pilates teachers who run regular lessons in the Village Hall: 

• Wednesday at 13:00: Liz Batty Pilates

• Wednesday at 18:30: Joy Pearman Pilates

• We also get occasional visits from Beth Svarovska
