Pilates is a gentle exercise that focuses on core strength, muscle balance and postural alignment. The movements are completed either sitting or lying down on a mat and use gravity to help stabilise your core.   

Exercises are easily modifiable for all levels and can be adapted to suit your individual challenges or needs.
