Small, physiotherapist-led Pilates classes designed around controlled movement, core stability, posture, strength and confidence — with face-to-face and Zoom options.
Pilates is a controlled movement programme that focuses on the deep postural muscles of the trunk, with attention to stability, alignment, breathing and body awareness.
At Amesbury Physiotherapy, classes are led by Chartered Physiotherapists with APPI training and musculoskeletal experience. Small class sizes allow movements to be observed, corrected and adapted to different abilities.
WHY PILATES?
Build a stronger foundation for everyday movement.
01
Core stability
Train the deep trunk muscles that support controlled, efficient movement.
02
Posture & alignment
Develop greater awareness of how you organise your body through movement.
03
Strength & balance
Use controlled loading and resistance to build useful strength and balance.
04
Rehabilitation
Pilates can be adapted to support return to movement after musculoskeletal problems.
THE 8 PRINCIPLES
Mind and body working together.
Pilates is not simply about completing exercises. Attention to the quality of movement is central to the method.
01
Concentration
Pay attention to how the body moves.
02
Centring
Create a stable base from the trunk.
03
Precision
Make each movement deliberate and accurate.
04
Alignment
Organise the body well through each exercise.
05
Control
Avoid rushing and own the range of movement.
06
Co-ordination
Link different parts of the movement together.
07
Flowing movement
Move smoothly rather than in disconnected pieces.
08
Breathing
Use breathing as part of movement and control.
THE PHYSIO-LED DIFFERENCE
More than following a sequence.
All instructors are Chartered Physiotherapists and APPI members with experience in musculoskeletal care. That clinical background helps exercises be adapted around age, injury history, movement confidence and experience.
Face-to-face and Zoom classes are available across the week. Contact the clinic before attending to confirm availability and the most appropriate class.
