Pilates at Newport has operated since 2002 and we offer affordable Pilates work outs to ensure our clients gain the greatest benefit by being able to do more than one work out a week. To check out our pricing just go to the schedule of classes for this information. If you want motivation to attend two classes a week, try a semi-private class with a friend to get started on toning your bodies before you front up at the beach hiding under your caftan. You will share the excitement of seeing your body tone improve, with additional flexibility and strength which will enable you to wear your summer outfits with confidence. The Studio always provides take home exercises at the Initial Consultation so you can tone up and improve your flexibility faster. Work out programs are based on your fitness as Pilates Studio training has a syllabus which graduates from Beginners, to Intermediate and Advanced exercises which your teacher will move you through after assessing your progress. Once you see and feel the difference Pilates can make you will be hooked for life. I have been doing Pilates for 22 years and never tire of the work as its always challenging, interesting and successful with most of the people I teach. It is not always possible for every new client to reach the Advanced Level unless they have been attending the Studio 2-3 times a week for at least 2 years, but the accomplishment you feel when you get there is very rewarding.

Pilates is based on concentration, control, centering, flowing movement, precision and breathing to create core stability and postural alignment.

Why Pilates? Pilates is recommended by Doctors and Physiotherapists for rehabilitation of specific injuries namely trauma or long term postural problems, as it provides strengthening, core stability and balances muscles. Pilates can also be practiced at a client’s own pace which is ideal for anyone who has suffered injury through trauma.

In conventional workouts, weak muscles tend to get weaker and strong muscles tend to get stronger. The result is muscular imbalance – a primary cause of lower back pain.

Pilates exercises train several muscle groups at once in smooth, continuous movements. By developing proper technique, you can actually re-train the body to move in safer, more efficient patterns of motion – invaluable for injury recovery, sport performance, good posture and optimal health.

Pilates gets your mind in tune with your body by emphasising proper breathing, correct spinal and pelvic alignment and complete concentration in smooth, flowing movement.

The quality of movement is valued over quantity of repetitions. Correct breathing helps you execute movements with maximum power and efficiency. Last but not least, learning to breathe propertly can reduce stress.
