If you are fit and healthy and have been given approval from your doctor to exercise, then we are happy for you to follow our prenatal workouts. As always, listen to your body during this special time and be careful not to over-exert yourself when exercising. If you need any more advice, then please let me or your doctor know.
If you have been cleared by your medical practitioner to re-commence exercise, then Pilates is a fantastic for building your strength and toning your body. Please be aware that you may not have the strength to make it through the entire workouts yet but with time you will build your strength. If you feel any strain in your lower back or groin area throughout these exercises please take a rest. Listen to your body and be kind to it throughout your post natal exercise journey.
Some of my workouts require no equipment, however a lot do so I recommend purchasing some Pilates equipment before beginning classes.
My classes incorporate the following equipment, though subscribers of course do not have to purchase all:
Yes, I like to start my client’s journey with an initial consultation at my studio in Clapham. This will allow me to get to know you and your body in order to build a program that works best for you. We’ll also go through your medical history, any concerns or injuries and assess your overall strength and flexibility.
LB Pilates is a boutique Pilates studio focused on not only improving your body but also your mind. My sessions are based completely on your needs, goals and body type and together we will work to transform your body into a better stronger version so that you can reach your full potential and live a happy fulfilled life!
Yes! Pilates is safe during pregnancy and will help you maintain your strength and posture throughout the changing months of your pregnancy journey. The sessions can be adapted depending on what feels best for your body and can also help you to regain your strength and posture quickly after giving birth.
I encourage clients to gain full approval from their health practitioner or obstetrician before re-commencing exercise post pregnancy. This usually happens around six-weeks post birth, however what is key is that you feel ready and listen to what your body is telling you.
As I tailor my sessions around each client, as long as you can walk around I can create sessions catered for your needs.
In order to feel and see a change, I recommend doing Pilates at least twice a week. I believe it takes between 5-10 sessions for a beginner to get into the initial swing of Pilates however once you gain the important connection between your body and mind, you will quickly see results!
At LB Pilates we see age as just a number and welcome clients of any age to the studio. At all ages it is important to regularly exercise and we think Pilates has so many benefits for both children and those more senior.
Pilates is not a High Intensity workout, but it is designed to sculpt and produce long and lean muscles. This in combination with a balanced diet will contribute to a noticeable change in the body shape.
Movement is medicine and I highly recommend trying to do 15-20 minutes of Pilates everyday with 2 longer sessions in the week. It does take 5-10 sessions for a beginner to get into the swing of Pilates and understanding the principles but once the mind and body connection happens you should start to see results very quickly.
Pilates can be more effective for some people. Rather than utilising static stretches, Pilates focuses on movements while stretching. This means the muscles are warm when you stretch, allowing you to stretch further with less pain. The Pilates stretching technique will elongate and detoxify your muscles and the more flexible you become the less muscle tension you will endure, and your blood circulation will be improved.
