What should I know about my Clinical Pilates Exercise Program?
A program specific to YOU
At The Physio Studio, our highly trained sports physiotherapists are qualified in using a range of exercises including strength training, the clinical Pilates method, and balance and flexibility training, and will establish a program specifically for you. Following a thorough initial assessment, we develop your program over a series of 1:1 sessions.
You are then ready to join our Studio Equipment classes. Participants who are experienced and confident with their program after attending a full course of sessions can then also elect to join as a casual studio member and access the studio equipment outside of class times.
Our Pilates Studio
Our air-conditioned Pilates studio is fully equipped and home to our EQUIP Pilates classes. Clients can take part in supervised Pilates-based sessions throughout the week or book private 1:1 sessions with our physiotherapists for focused guidance.
Our classes and sessions include using equipment such as Pilates reformers, chi balls, trapeze tables, balance balls, and more, making them fun as well as functional! We find that the use of equipment increases resistance to give clients an entire body workout while also aiming to improve core stability. Whether you’re experiencing back pain, neck pain, pain elsewhere in the body, or simply want to improve your core fitness, Pilates exercises— whether in group classes or 1:1— may be the strengthening workout your body has been waiting for you to try.
Our Team of Certified Pilates Instructors
Our Clinical Pilates program is run by our experienced team of physiotherapists with clinical knowledge and training in sports physiotherapy and Pilates. Members of the team are DMA Pilates Physiotherapists and also have training from the KX Academy, making them well-rounded and incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to Pilates.
Recognised as the benchmark for clinical Pilates in physiotherapy, the DMA method takes a distinctive approach by identifying the root causes behind symptoms that bring many people to Pilates. At The Physio Studio, our director Sean Bushby holds a level 4 DMA Pilates qualification, while physiotherapist Scott Palmer is certified at level 1. With a team of six dedicated physios, we’re excited to support you in your Pilates journey.
Explore Our Pilates Classes
Our skilled physiotherapists oversee every class, maintaining a supportive environment with a maximum of 6 clients per session for focused guidance.
EQUIP (Reformer Pilates)
Named EQUIP because they prepare and equip you for improved balance, mobility, and endurance, our reformer Pilates classes incorporate Pilates reformers and other equipment like chi balls. If your goal is to develop Pilates skills on a reformer, EQUIP is the ideal class to join.
Vital
Your core muscles are vital, but Pilates reformers aren’t always vital to every Pilates session! Our Vital classes are mat-based, where exercises are done on mats on the floor. Proving equipment isn’t always necessary to a Pilates workout, mat Pilates in our Vital classes also aim to improve core muscle strength, endurance, and posture.
Pregnancy Pilates
Our studio equipment classes can accommodate prenatal exercise. Our physiotherapists can advise on what classes and exercises are suitable for you depending on your health, stage of pregnancy, and prenatal experience. Please feel free to contact us for more information. Our floor-based Vital Pilates classes may also be appropriate during pregnancy.
