Group Pilates classes with foam rollers, weighted balls, hoops and other small equipment in your area. I also have my own dedicated Pilates Studio at The Therapy Centre, Iceni Court (near to Norwich Airport) and I teach one-to-one personal training at my studio. Joseph Pilates developed his system of exercise to encourage his clients to live a healthy lifestyle.
He placed great emphasis on deep breathing and exercising regularly. Over the years the Pilates method has become the preferred exercise programme for those people who enjoy exercising their mind as well as their body. I'm currently training with CPM Pilates (Contrology Pilates Method) in a method called Spatial Medicine.

This will be using a mixture of studio equipment the Reformer, Cadillac and also a mixture of matwork exercises. I can also create a small programme for you to practice at home, this will greatly enhance the Reformer exercises used in the studio.

I have been doing Pilates with Sheryl Prendergast for over 4 years, I have a one hour session of one-to-one Pilates Reformer training every week.
