Owner of Premium Pilates and Fitness Emily had waayyy too much fun running the Wynnum Bugs women's rugby team through a Pilates class.
After we joined their rugby training, it was only fair to have the girls come into PPF Wynnum for a workout swap. Turns out a lot of what we work on in Pilates carries straight onto the field. Deep core strength, strong glutes, stable hips and rotation for passes!
It’s not just on the field you can feel the benefits of Pilates, though. The same work helps with everyday life too: better posture at your desk, more balance chasing the kids around, and more mobility for everything from gardening to your morning walk along the Wynnum foreshore.
A huge thank you to Kate and the Bugs for being such good sports, you all did amazing! If you haven't come across them yet, the Bugs are our local women's rugby team, based right here at Elanora Park in Wynnum. You don't need any rugby experience to join. Plenty of the girls started out as complete beginners and found a team that backs them on and off the field. Keen to give it a go? Check them out: https://wynnumrugby.com.au/membership/womens-rugby/
We hope to see you all back on the mat soon!
If you've been thinking about trying Pilates, we'd love to see you at PPF Wynnum. Start your trial week through the link in bio.
