Group Matwork Classes
Group Classes are taught at Pershore Cherry Orchard School,
Pershore Town Hall and Eckington Memorial Hall.
Classes are 1 hour 5 minutes in
length, 1 hour Pilates, followed by relaxation,
essential for busy lives and minds.
Classes are run in blocks, each block varies in length from
6 to 7 weeks.
Class sizes are small, 10-12 participants.
This enables individual attention,
ensuring maximum benefit is gained from each class, allowing you to
master the basics and achieve more noticeable results, as well as
building a rapport with your teacher.
Pilates exercises are performed on a mat and standing. During a
block of classes various pieces
of studio equipment, such as, Flexi-bands, Pilates Overballs, Toning
Rings, Foam Rollers and Sit-Fits (Wobble Cushions) may be used to challenge you,
heighten your awareness and help you gain the most from your Pilates
class. All equipment is provided, including
mats and head pillows.
How do I join a Group Class ?
● If you are familiar with the Body Control Pilates Method you can
feed straight in to an appropriate level of class.
● If you have practiced Pilates before but are unfamiliar with Body Control Pilates we recommend a private lesson
before joining class.
● If you are new to Pilates we recommend 1 to 3 private lessons,
where you will be taught some basic Pilates exercise which you can
practice at home, thereby
gaining the most from class when you join.
● If you have been referred by a Chiropractor, Osteopath or
Physiotherapist we recommend 3 to 5 private
lessons to ensure that Pilates exercises are safe and appropriate for
you.
Please note:
Joining a group class depends on available spaces.
Occasionally you may need to go on a waiting list.
What do I wear ?
Wear comfortable clothing which allows freedom of movement.
Pilates is done without foot
wear but you may wish to wear socks.
Keep jewellery to a minimum and tie long hair back.
