Come and join us
These pilates classes are for women only and will leave you feeling wonderful.
Pilates is based on a set of principles that exercise the whole body through a range of mat-based exercises. It’s suitable for all ages and levels of ability – and with regular practice you can make positive changes to your body. Plus it’s great for your wellbeing too.
How Pilates works
Pilates involves the co-ordination of deep postural and stability muscles – combined with breathing, arm and leg movements, postural correction and flexibility. Scientific research shows Pilates can reduce pain and improve physical function, movement and wellbeing.
APPI pilates is a little different from standard pilates classes. With 4-6 levels for each classic Pilates exercise, our method makes Pilates accessible to everyone, with any level of fitness or injury.
