Private Pilates Sessions (one-on-one)
A Pilates private session is a one hour Pilates session involving one client to one instructor.
A private session commences after an initial consultation. An initial consultation includes reviewing your goals, a postural assessment, developing your tailored Pilates program and then learning the basics of Pilates.
These sessions generally involve a combination of mat based exercises and the use of the Pilates machines to meet your goals, address any pain or injury and most importantly to address any postural deviations in your body.
You would consider a private session if:
– You require a higher level of supervision from an instructor
– You are just finishing a rehabilitation program with a Physiotherapist or other practitioner
– Your practitioner may wish for you to begin non-impact, gentle exercise in conjunction with treatment you are receiving
– You have a certain health condition or restriction
– It may be your only option if you cannot get on and off the floor to exercise
– The machines provide variable resistance in a workout which can add challenge or provide support
– The Pilates mat class timetable does not suit you
– You just like using the machines
– You want the most flexibility when attending sessions at the studio
Semi-Private Pilates Sessions
A Pilates semi-private session entails one instructor supervising up to 3-4 clients who are working on their own tailored program.
A semi-private session commences after the initial consultation. The initial consultation includes reviewing your goals, a postural assessment, developing your tailored Pilates program and then learning the basics of Pilates.
These sessions generally involve a combination of mat based exercises and the use of the Pilates machines to meet your goals, address any pain or injury and most importantly address any postural deviations in your body.
You would consider a private session if:
– You need more tailored Pilates on your body without the extra expense of a private session
– You are just finishing a rehabilitation program with a Physiotherapist or other Practitioner
– Your practitioner may wish for you to begin non-impact, gentle exercise in conjunction with treatment you are receiving
– You have a certain health condition or restriction
– It may be your only option if you cannot get on and off the floor to Exercise
– The machines provide you with variable resistance in a workout which can add challenge or provide support to you
– The Pilates mat class timetable does not suit you
– You just like using the machines

Pilates Mat Classes
A Pilates mat class involves doing a whole body workout on a mat, using small apparatus.
Small apparatus includes stability balls, dumbbells, resistance bands, fit balls, foam rollers, magic circles, ankle weights and more.
Pilates mat classes are designed for the general population and are suitable if you do not have any injuries or special health conditions.
