Discover the power of precise movement and controlled breathing with Pilates. Perfect for those who are new to exercise or dealing with back pain, our Pilates sessions offer a gentle yet effective way to improve your strength, flexibility, and overall health.

What is Pilates?

Pilates is a form of exercise that helps strengthen the entire body while increasing flexibility and range of motion. It focuses on core muscles, which are often overlooked in traditional workouts. Pilates can also help improve posture, reduce stress, and increase energy levels.

Pilates was created by Joseph Pilates in the 1920s. It is based on a series of mat exercises with principles that focus on core strength, concentration, control, and breathing. Pilates can be practiced solo or in classes led by qualified instructors, such as those found at Carter & George.

Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or just starting with exercise, our 1-on-1 sessions provide the individual attention needed to master the Pilates method safely and effectively.

Small Group Pilates Classes

Find motivation in community with our small group Pilates class. Limited to just a few participants, these classes maintain an intimate setting where each student receives ample attention from our instructor. Enjoy the camaraderie of working out with others while benefiting from the personalized instruction typically found in one-on-one sessions.

We would advise starting with the 1-1 Pilates sessions before joining the regular class.

Why Choose Pilates?

Pilates is a low-impact exercise method that focuses on core strength, flexibility, and mindful movement. It’s ideal for those with lower back pain, as it strengthens the muscles that support the spine and improves posture, which can alleviate discomfort and prevent future issues. Exercises are gentle and require little (or no) equipment – making it accessible to those without a gym membership.

For beginners, Pilates provides a welcoming and accessible entry point into regular exercise, promoting increased body awareness and improved physical fitness.

For older adults, it is a safe form of exercise that incorporates whole body strength, and can help with balance, mobility and specific needs.
