NEW CLASSES FOR BEGINNER AND ADVANCED STUDENTS!
A slow paced, beginner and rehab-friendly practice, that invites you to truly tap into the subtleties and inner landscape of your body. This class is a wonderful opportunity to feel into a deeper level, to reeducate the subtle patterns of the body. Working towards finding a cohesive, coordinated, harmonious pattern of equilibrium.
A workout is a great thing and everything has its time and purpose. But this class is truly about slowing down and working-IN; in to the body and mind. Giving you plenty of time, to adsorb, articulate and digest your movement.
An experiment! Students and teachers alike, can explore this practice and discover new applications, modifications and challenges! Using your sensibility and discerning interpretation of movement; what makes sense and what is offering a useful purpose? Seeking your ‘WHY?’ A curious movement explorer reaps more, cognitively and physically, from their movement practice.
You can use whichever sling you have available. I offer explanations and suggestions for practicing with any sling. Here I’m using both the Elements Harness Sling* and Elements Wide Sling*. I’ve attached it to the top rail of my apparatus with Elements Cuffs for Bars*.

A familiar Pilates Chair exercise, with variations from the Garuda Method Apparatus training. This sequence is great for building strength, stability, balance & proprioception. A great way to address organization, build strength and endurance, through the lower limb, pelvis and spine.
This class is suitable for all levels. Beginners and those in rehabilitation can use the chair handles / poles to assist with balance. Adjust springs accordingly (lighter/lower rung).
Progression students can challenge endurance (without alternating sides), add repetitions and increase spring resistance.
Garuda apparatus users can utilise the Elements Level Loops* and Elements Y Loops (for hands)* for balance, if they need to.
