Pilates classes in West Dulwich

Pilates has been scientifically proven to be beneficial and is recommended by physiotherapists and osteopaths alike. Pilates will strengthen the body and mobilise joints, it will stretch and tone the muscles and enhance body awareness.

Pilates works from the inside out because Pilates trains the stabilising muscles. With the stabilisers engaged, the spine is supported and least stressed. While the spine is supported, the body is strong and the mobilising muscles can work efficiently.

What will the class be like?

Everything you need for your class is provided and sanitised, just arrive in comfortable clothes. You will spend 55 minutes taking your body through various movements. Every class is different, sometimes using small balls, sometimes bands, sometimes the Pilates Circles and so on. Sometimes working with no equipment just our bodies and minds. By the end of any session you will have used every muscle! The class will be a continuous flow of movements developed to strengthen, stretch and tone your muscles and mobilise your joints. You will learn how to breathe while at the same time keep your deep muscles gently contracted; develop skills that enable you to completely relax your body and isolate and utilise your muscles. Always working at a level that’s right for you on any given day.

How long will it take to work?

Joseph Pilates said ‘In ten sessions you’ll feel difference, in twenty you’ll see the difference and in thirty you’ll have a new body’. Making Pilates part of your routine and taking a class once a week with a qualified instructor is all you need to do. In class, you will learn good postural technique that you can take into your everyday life. Before you know it, you will be thinking Pilates as you go about your daily life.

Testimonials

Wonderful class this morning. You’re so intuitive….just dealt with all the areas that have been aching

Wendy explains everything with such calmness, and creatively, the way she explains things REALLY makes you understand what is going on and I feel it’s very unique

Student, Royal Academy of Dance

In 2015 and again in 2019 I broke a wrist in a fall on uneven surfaces. This meant I walked head down to watch my tread – not ideal. Then Wendy did a section in her class on walking —- heel toe, heel toe, to avoid our uneven pavements just waiting to trip us up. It also helps stabilise the body making you more confident and grounded. It took practice but I kept hearing Wendy’s voice in my ear (heel-toe, heel toe) and it has become more natural. So much so when my neighbour tripped in Lordship Lane, fracturing her hip and collar bone I passed this tip on to her. She now hears my voice in her ear! and although her recovery took a long time she is seeing the benefits. Thanks Wendy, during 9 years of sessions you have taught me a lot but this has been a top tip!!

Honestly, I just love coming to your Pilates classes the hour just whizzes by.
I want to do more.
I really do feel much stronger especially my abdominal muscles and my legs.

My week doesn’t seem complete if I have had to miss a class. Also your help and work with my hamstrings and knees has just been amazing and made soooo much difference. My son who is an orthopaedic surgeon is
incredibly impressed.

Since your course at the RAD over the summer – and your excellent advice on ways to strengthen the muscles supporting my knees – I no longer suffer from knee pain: not even when I’m running. It’s quite incredible

Thank you for a fantastic session this morning. My rhomboids and me are very happy!

I am really starting to feel the benefit from the sessions and your help. It is amazing.

Isolating muscle groups is fascinating. I realise that in my job I rely on the big guys e.g. biceps … at the expense of my core … and those rhomboids. I am now really very aware of firing up muscles in preparation for movement and relaxing others.
I have noticed the increased range in my Right shoulder and am definitely feeling the benefit in upper thoracic spine from lying supine with ball.
Thank you again.

I saw an osteoscan consultant recently to have my bone density and fragility tested and he was very surprised at the condition of my back considering my history of fractures. All down to Pilates I think! So thank you.
