What to Expect
At Pure Pilates, we pride ourselves on our quality, consistency, and personal attention. We believe that Pilates is a natural, logical, and common-sense approach to exercise that develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind, and elevates the spirit. By focusing on strengthening your core postural muscles and correcting your posture and alignment, you will develop muscle balance, allowing the body to move freely and efficiently.
Our studio boasts a range of quality professional Pilates equipment, including Reformers, Trapeze Tables, Wall Units, and a variety of smaller equipment, all based on Joseph Pilate's original designs. Our experienced and knowledgeable teachers will guide you through a progressive and challenging programme, using a combination of mat work and specialist Pilates machines to fully optimise your experience.
