5 new Pilates At Home workouts for spine and strength
April is here, and the clocks have sprung forward which means that winter is over we get longer days and hopefully this means more sunshine! Yippee!
I have curated another brand new workout Planner for you this April, I have considered Good Friday and Easter Sunday so that if (like me) you're rather partial to extra choccy you can de-bloat with a bloating release class! As usual, each class is varied in length so you can fit the classes into your week, I have included a variety of props (this month you have a weights class and a resistance band one). I have also included a couple of Sunday meditations which you can choose to do on the dates I have suggested or do them weekly, these are here to calm and restore and aid restful sleep ready for the week ahead.
This dedication to your Pilates practice will radiate into all aspects of your life and full body health is what Joseph Pilates wanted for all of his students.
The April planner is available from the shop for £5.
New at-home Pilates classes for April
Your Spine's Scaffolding
Working on the muscles that keep us up!
The glutes and spinal muscles as well as those surrounding the pelvis help us to stand tall. As we age our bone density decreases and lifestyle factors such as prolonged sitting mean these muscles weaken.

Focus: Glutes, Spine strength, Shoulders, Posture, Balance.
Category: Glutes & Legs

Spine Flow
A flowing class designed to move your spine in all the ways in which it was designed to move. Feel the flow and feel amazing.

Sling Balance
Our muscles are balanced into sling systems, which means muscle groups work together when we move. Imagine a big X of muscles across your front and back. Ever noticed you can rotate farther in one direction than the other? Chances are your muscular slings are imbalanced. In this short class, we’ll look to restore balance.
