What is Clinical Pilates?

It’s Pilates for you, and no one else.

You start with an assessment - a one on one session with a clinical Pilates therapist

And then you either move in to a small group of a max of 4 ppl or you stick with one on ones until you feel confident enough

Clinical Pilates is ideal for you if you’ve got pain, injury, prefer small groups or value individualised attention

Some people choose clinical Pilates pre or post surgery, as part of their rehab program or because they prefer one on one to larger groups

And the beautiful thing about clinical Pilates with us is that you have a clear pathway towards group Pilates including reformer, tower and mat classes

Which means you’re never stuck in clinic but we also have the means to work with you whether you’re injured or not

Pilates truly is designed for everybody as long as the session is created for your unique body

Clinic is open Monday - Saturday 7am - 8pm

Reach out and we will get you started with an assessment this week

Choosing the right Pilates studio for your needs can be confusing

Your GP or health care provider is often misinformed too and we understand why

If you’ve got pain, injury or need individualised care then you want to look for therapeutic or clinical Pilates

NOT

Reformer Pilates

And if you want to work towards reformer Pilates but you’re not quite there yet you wanna look for

ENCORE PILATES

Because we offer both clinical and fitness Pilates

And we will work with you to reach your goals

Safely and expertly

But please before you take the advice of your health care professional who doesn’t know the difference between therapy and fitness any more than we know the difference between statins come and speak to us and we can help you decide if Pilates is the right fit for you

Ps. And if you are the GP who is telling people that Pilates for pre hip replacement is dangerous we invite you in to the studio for a complementary clinical discussion so we can educate you better 😉

Please share this with your health care provider friends and anyone who is preparing for or recovering from surgery

The knee joint is the biggest joint in the body AND it takes more load than any other joint

So your legs have to be strong and the joint capable if you want to get on with life

It’s common for ppl to have a ‘dicky knee’ and we often see people shying away from the very movement that is going to get them stronger because of the pain

The good news is, there are strategies we can use to help someone with knee pain practice functional movement patterns without flaring up the issue

And over time it may be possible for them to not only get stronger but feel more confident, have better balance and be able to do more

Pilates is an amazing tool when it comes to being able to meet the client where they are at and this is the whole point of the practice

Some people may be better off starting with a one on one or in a smaller group of up to 4 ppl and other people just need clear strategies to self manage in class

Either way, working in pain free range is the best way to improve function long term.

But also trusting that you’re working with people who actually know their s**t

Hope that helps

This video actually applies to many women too but I see it more in guys

When you round your body it flex your trunk in a plank it makes the re**us abs (6 pack muscles) and pecs (chest muscles) over ride the exercise.

And yes while these may be some of the major drivers of your plank, to get the entire body working more cohesively we can reposition you so that you’re not in a ‘bulldog stance’.

This is a powerful exercise for the entire body - muscles, nervous system, brain all working in concert to organise the body into a smooth, spectacular motion

If we can help you reduce the bracing effect of over recruiting you will well and truly be on your way to actually doing Pilates and not just exercising on a reformer (which is fun but missing the point)

So if you’re looking for ways to improve movement, free up tension and feel stronger and more capable we’ve got the moves for you.

Some lessons take longer to learn

If you had started something in the past and dropped off because you weren’t sure it was for you

Or you didn’t feel like it changed you the way you had hoped

And now you’re back to where you started, wondering if maybe you had jumped the gun

You’re not the only one

Sometimes it takes having time away from the thing that was helping you to realise just how beneficial it was

This is your reminder to get back to that thing

This is a huge shout out to our friends at Embella Jewellery who celebrated 15 years in business this weekend.

We have loved being part of your journey as it has unfolded.

We have shared so many moments.

Before kids and before social when life was all about us, building who we were becoming simply by doing what we loved

No one gets you more than a friend who shares the life of being in business. And what looks like the perfect life of travel and adventure is also late nights sitting on the couch figuring out the unfigureoutable until you succeed

None of us are here to build a workplace - we are in it for the legacy of building something that truly matters, something that is bigger than ourselves so we can make an impact on the World.

We are blessed to walk this hard road with you guys and happy to share the moments that make you who you are becoming

Here’s to many more adventures and memories xox

And to all those beautiful clients we share - see you in studio dripping in jewellery that’s made with heart
