What can I expect to achieve doing Pilates?Pilates challenges the way you function and move your body! It helps reorganise the neuromuscular signals in your body to create more efficient movement and contractions of your muscles. This gives you increased muscle tone, reduced risk of injury, and reduced energy expenditure when performing your normal daily & sporting activities. Leaving you feeling fresh and energetic with increased confidence in your bodies abilities!
-
Why choose pilates with a Physiotherapist over a normal instructor?Physiotherapists have an in-depth understanding of anatomy & pathology. We are registered and undertake compulsory continuing education every year - leaving us with the most up-to-date information to look after you!

Do I need a Physio consult before joining?We recommend that everyone completes a Functional Assessment appointment - this allows us to gain a greater understanding of your physical condition and your specific fitness goals. Then we can design your individualised program, helping you get the most out of your sessions. It is a requirement if your want to claim your classes on healthfund!
