WHY DO PILATES?
WHY DO PILATES?
Why we chose to do Pilates?
We are both very active but were looking to improve our posture, balance and joint mobility, as well as build our strength and flexibility and help overcome some annoying niggles and strains that we had picked up through running, cycling and walking a very boisterous German Shepherd Dog.
Visits to the physio helped but were not improving or correcting our condition so we decided to try Pilates as way to build our core muscles and set our bodies up for long term success.
How it has helped?
The weekly sessions with Anna have certainly delivered on all of the above, we have been really impressed with how she designs the sessions to our individual needs & requirements.
At the start of each session Anna is always keen to understand how our bodies are feeling and uses this feedback to tailor each session.
During the lockdown period we moved to Zoom sessions so as to continue the program which also helped us keep our sanity ! Anna's upbeat and positive nature always makes you try that bit harder in each session.
The group Zoom classes have also been useful as we can fit them in around are various schedules and work commitments

GLUTS ARE BOSS
GLUTS ARE BOSS
Along with the core and pelvic floor activation, glut activation is key to prevent unnecessary loading of the lower back; and will help to avoid injury.
The gluts support the hips, as the thigh lifts towards the trunk, in simple movement such as walking, running, or even climbing the stairs. However if the gluts are weak, the body will lean forward in walking or climbing stairs, indicating the loading of the back because the gluts are not strong enough.
It is likely that lower back injury or fatigue can be accelerated because of inactive gluts. Even an old ankle injury can inhibit the natural recruitment of the gluts. Our body has a natural kinetic chain and if disturbed through injury, or over use of one area of the body, can inhibit this kinetic chain working efficiently.
In training at HIIT sessions and Fitness Pilates, I will be helping you to:
1. Visualise the muscles that you are working
2. Feel the muscle that you should be activating; which helps to set-up the unconscious neurological pathway in your body for efficient use of energy and avoid injuries.(train the brain)
3. Activate and stretch the gluts
4. Stretch the deep hip muscles, e.g. the piriformis
5. Massaging the gluts with hip circles into the floor and releasing potential sciatic issues and nerve endings in the lumbar spine
6. Releasing the hamstrings
7. Tension release of the hip flexors, allowing the gluts to ‘fire’ up sufficiently
8. Inspiring the body to move through synchronised activity to enhance efficient energy pathways in the body
9. Inspire the neurological pathways and practice, without loading the back
10. Using different feet positions when taking part in exercises

TESTIMONIES
TESTIMONIES
w/ The Justin Trio
After retiring I started to look for a class to keep me fit and supple.
As a keen cyclist I also wanted a class that would challenge my balance and align my posture.
I had take yoga classes before but wanted something more active and discovered Fitness Pilates was right for me.
I had a little break following a bike accident and following a steady recovery from surgery and physio, I was ready to come back to pilates, where Anna made the necessary adaptations for me.
Having invested in these classes for a while and seen the improvements, I decided to challenge my fitness a little more and have a go at HIIT, to help improve my stamina and strength.
Both HIIT and pilates have evidently supported my recovery from the accident and now I am even more amazed...... I have bottom again!!

Anna Messaged me just in time, as I was starting to feel very low from the onset side effects of peri-menopause, not being able to get to classes and no get up and go to sort this out for myself.
I am so glad I now have 1:1 personal training with Anna, as she has helped me to:
- Get hydrated
- Be more mindful about what I eat
- See great improvements in my tone and strength
- Be mindful of how I run
I now have great stamina in my running too
Thank you Anna

I started HIIT and pilates with Anna and havn't looked back since
Ive been doing a mix of classes and PT weekly, which have helped me to structure the right level of activity into my week, adapted when needed, as I have been working around back, hip and knee 'niggles'.
Anna understand my goals, constraints and abilities, and still seems to challenge me each session.
Ive seen huge improvements in my tone and strength, and become more aware of the need to stay hydtrated and make suitable food choices in order to see the diferences in my body shape.

........and now Ive joined in too!!! Intrigued by Annas approach to health and fitness, I now sleep a lot better from doing pilates and these classes also help to keep acute back ache at bay.
Tight hamstrings and a long commute to work have exhausted my body and Pilates has helped to bring some 'me time' to the end of my day and helps to unwind my head and body!!
I am now pushing my fitness at the occasional HIIT/PT session, under the careful eye of Anna, who make the necessary adaptations for me when necessary.
