Pilates in Bushey: Weekly Mat-Based Strength and Mobility Class

Location: St Margaret’s Sports Centre, Bushey, WD23 1DT (free parking)

I love introducing everyone to Pilates. In our small Pilates classes everyone receives careful observation and support. Alternative-level exercises mean you attend at your fitness level, improving your posture, strength and mobility with no pressure to keep up with others. This is your fitness journey to enjoy with confidence. Sanchia:)

Class Vibe:

Expect a warm, fun, relaxed and inclusive atmosphere in this small class, with people on the same fitness journey as you. There is a no comparison or competition rule, this is your fitness journey. Open to all fitness levels (beginners to intermediate).

Mat-Based Workouts: Focus on strengthening the core, pelvic floor, joints, posture, and whole-body tone.

Equipment Used: Resistance bands, Pilates balls, core sliders and blocks—great for supporting and improving the exercises and providing variety.

The Goal: Pilates is about consistent long term progress, not overnight quick fix transformations. Investing in your long-term physical strength and mobility is important and improves mental wellbeing to.

But of course we all want to look good - So rest assured Pilates improves physical tone and strength. As your posture and core strength improves... so will your body shape and self confidence. Time to start loving and appreciating your body!
