APPI & MK Pilates method

My Physiotherapist led Pilates Classes in Poole Can Help You!

Reduce Pain

Regular Pilates practice can help with pain, posture, muscle strength, balance and joint mobility. Pilates can also relieve stress and tension. I am a chartered physiotherapist and certified Pilates teacher and provide expert guidance and correction of technique of the Pilates method during my classes.

Feel Stronger

Pilates exercises are designed to help you increase your strength and postural awareness from the inside to the outside. I have many years of experience and give easier and harder levels sometimes using small equipment such as balls and bands to support or challenge the body. I encourage you to work at the right level for your body.

Get Moving

Pilates is a great form of low-impact exercise, accessible to many. I plan a new, varied, fun class every week which I adjust for your pre-screened health conditions and injuries using my physio knowledge and years of Pilates training for rehabilitation to get you moving.
