Pilates for Pregnancy with Lynne Robinson

At last a safe and effective Pilates program that takes into account all the charges your body is going through while pregnant.
Designed for use in pregnancy from 16 weeks onwards and from 6 weeks after the birth, these exercises will:
• Make your pregnancy more comfortable
• Prepare you for the rigors of labor and for the demands of motherhood
• Help you get back into shape more quickly after the birth
• Teach you to use your natural ‘girdle of strength’ allowing you to carry the added weight of the baby easily
• Improve your body awareness, helping you discover how to use your breath and release tension so that labor is more comfortable
• Work the pelvic floor in every exercise, so you can gain greater control during delivery itself, and soon return to normal after the birth

Posture Perfect PTV

Nothing feels worse that bad back pain! Over half of the adult population has hurt their backs or experienced back or neck problems of some kind. Along with a lack of movement, the pain associated with these injuries can be intense and debilitating.

I expect a lot from my body – we all do, whether it is sports activity like football, running, golf – or everyday life – like picking kids up, house work or desk-bound office duties. We need to ensure we keep them in top condition.

With these 5 specific pilates workouts, you can have a power-base which is a sure-fire remedy for all back issues and an easy, fun path to perfect posture.

Walk tall, sit straight, and feel energized!" - Kylie Jaye.

Stress Relief & Essential Basics PTV

"Who does pilates anyway? The answer should be – EVERYONE! At the heart of good posture, muscle power and over-all fitness is your 'core strength'. Your ‘core’ holds you upright and gives you alignment. If you have poor core strength you are more prone to injury, bad posture, joint pain, neck and back strain, headache and effects basic functions like sleeping, breathing and digestion.

Getting a powerful foundation (working on those inner muscle groups you can’t see) will not only repair and alleviate pain, but provide a sensational foundation to build the smaller muscle groups which give our bodies fabulous shape and tone (the bits that show). Pilates is the answer – it makes you look good and feel powerful.

Brilliant for beginners, even if you have never exercised before. It's all the essentials!

These 5 classes were my first introduction to Pilates … then I was hooked!"

Desk-Bound Pilates PTV

If you are chained to a desk, leaning over a computer screen, standing at a counter serving customers or running around all day on your feet, then you absolutely need some balancing!
You probably find you get a constant ache or hold stress in your back, shoulders and neck from being in a constant forward position. These 5 PilatesTV classes are created to help re-balance the body and alleviate pressure from those areas.
The cool thing is - you can even do some of it AT YOUR DESK! I also find these ones good for when I travel a lot, crammed in planes and lugging heavy baggage around - absolute life savers!

Mr. Pilates

Come on guys - pilates is not just for the girls! Originally created as a form of rehabilitation and repair, lots of men who have hurt their backs have found themselves working out in a pilates studio to 'fix' their broken bodies.

Playing contact and competitive sports, lifting and building are part of a guy's daily activities. But often the body alignment and core strength are not developed and so these activities lead to injury, pain and frustration . This workout will also give you killer abs and increased definition in other muscle groups.
