Yoga
Yoga is an
ancient practice and there are many forms ranging from the purely meditative to
the positively athletic! In the West, the most widely practiced form of Yoga is
Hatha Yoga. Hatha means Sun (Ha) and Moon (Tha) and refers to the twin aspects
of energy and calm that combine in Yoga. Hatha yoga consists of Asanas
(postures), Pranayama (breathing) and cleansing techniques.
You may find
some teachers focus on different aspects. Where marked, we do ashtanga, but we also
offer general deeper slower pace classes.

Explaining
Pilates?
Pilates is a body
awareness exercise method. Limbs are moved through long-range motions fluidly
while maintaining a strong stable centre. Movement is controlled, precise and
related to the breath. Posture and alignment are improved. Pilates gives
strength with flexibility. The result is a long lean dancers look. It improves
muscle control, flexibility, strength, tone and coordination. The essence of a
Matwork class is core control, which results from strengthening the deep
abdominal and back muscles. Back and neck pain become history and proper
alignment and graceful posture your natural assets. Pilates Matwork is a series
of interconnected movement, each with a purpose and breathing pattern; it
integrates mind and body resulting in increased energy and relaxation. Muscles
are used deeply without stress and tension.
Who Are These Classes
For?
You! Anyone regardless of age or fitness level can enjoy the
benefits of Pilates Matwork. Many people discover Pilates because it is
recommended for those with injuries, ‘bad backs’ and alignment problems. Once
discovered, this method can become an addiction and be practiced as a general
fitness programme. For addicts, simple exercise can become very complex
routines. Excellent results when combined with your other exercises, either gym
or classes.
All YOGA & PILATES classes are included in Club membership making it exceptional value. But for many of you who can't attend regularly these classes are available on a per class basis.
