Reformer pilates

 

·        The reformer is the most commonly used piece of pilates equipment. Through use of a series of pulleys, resistance springs and a moveable carriage pilates exercises can be made more or less challenging for the individual. 

·        These sessions also include the use of free-weights to help add a circuit training element to your workout. The 55 minute long session will simply speed by as you burn calories and build core strength. The emphasis is on light-weight and high reps to strengthen, tighten and tone your entire body.

·        This is a workout that will challenge you and get quick results – your hips, legs, bum and arms will feel and look great and your flexibility enhanced.

·        At Activate Pilates group sessions (maximum 7 people) or one-to-one sessions are available.

·        If you would like to arrange a specific class for you and some friends, just ask and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.

 

Essential Reformer

·        Our essential reformer classes are a slower paced reformer pilates class.

·        These are suitable for those who are totally new to reformer pilates and those who may have a few aches, or just wish to enjoy a more gentle pace

·        This workout will still challenge all areas of the body working on core strength, muscle toning and flexibility.

 

 

 

 

Jumpboard Reformer 

·         Our jumpboard rerformer classes are a cardio based reformer class using the jumpboards.

·        This class has a larger cardio element than our standard classes and will further challenge your core, and total body strength, while elevating your heart rate.

 

 

 

Matwork Pilates  

  • Activate Pilates also offer traditional matwork classes.  These are run by Alex, our chartered physiotherapist. 
  • Alex has trained with the APPI (Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute) and therefore specialises in teaching clients who have or have had pain and injuries or would like specialist physiotherapy attention when doing exercise.
  • All classes are suitable for anyone wishing to do matwork classes, with slightly different approaches in each to the original Joseph Pilates exercises being used.
  • With the focus on core stability benefits of matwork pilates include longer, leaner muscles, improved posture, reduced risk of injury and enhanced performance of your body. The pilates exercises are a form of dynamic stabilisation retraining that reconditions the body from the central core to prevent the recurrence of and treat lower back pain.
  • High quality mats are provided for your use and class sizes are restricted to a maximum of 4, with one-to-one sessions also available.
  • If you have an injury and wish to join a class please click here for more information.

 

 

 

Sports Massage Therapy

 

·        Sports massage is not just for sportspeople; anyone can benefit, including people in physically demanding jobs. The benefits include:

§  Relieving muscle tightness and tension and thus help prevent injuries by maintaining and improving flexibility.

§  Aiding the recovery of injuries such as tendonitis, ligament sprains and muscle strains by reducing inflammation, increasing circulation and removing waste products.

§  Can help restore normal movement and posture by stretching shortened muscles and releasing adhesions and trigger points.
