All you need for your classes is to wear some comfortable clothes which are easy to move in. No shoes are worn for the exercises. Socks can be worn but some exercises work better without them. All equipment is provided for you, including mats. The majority of exercises do not need equipment, but some exercises may involve the use of stretch bands, wrist or ankle weights, poles, tennis balls or soft balls. Before joining a group class it is advisable to take a few private classes. This enables you to learn the basic principles of the exercises - breathing, core stability and alignment. This one to one session also allows your teacher to get to know your body for its shape and any current/previous injuries or pains and prescribe the exercises best for you as an individual. It also allows you to develop body awareness and understand how to control your muscle engagement. Enrolment forms detailing your medical history and any injuries or problems must be completed before starting any classes. If you have a specific medical condition you will also require consent from your doctor. GETTING STARTED To book into a group class please phone 01786 834757.
