Remedial Pilates

Improve pain, misalignment and physical well-being by applying the Pilates principles to a set of exercises suitable for home practice.

Remedial lessons focus intensively on individual corrections, in small groups of only three, so a diagnosed issue gets the attention it needs.

Goals

Freedom of movement, strength and flexibility, without pain
Correction of muscular imbalances
A better understanding of your body and how it functions
Improved coordination and alignment

What it is

Small-group lessons — only three people per class, over a ten-lesson course
Suitable for diagnosed back, neck and hip problems
Intensive focus on individual corrections
Individual attention from a highly qualified, experienced teacher

This course is also available as private tuition (different rates apply). Please discuss your suitability and goals first.

I booked five private sessions to see if Pilates could ease my back pain. I learned how the body doesn’t always work for its own good. Two years later I am pain free, with a far greater understanding of what causes discomfort and how to work with my body rather than against it.

I have suffered all my life from a weak back. That I have persevered is entirely due to the skill, knowledge and encouragement of the teacher.

Please get your doctor’s permission before starting. Remedial Pilates supports your well-being and rehabilitation, but is not a substitute for medical care.

Have your doctor’s clearance to hand and be ready to describe your issue, so we can discuss suitability before the first session.
