What is one to one Pilates?
Unlike group or general reformer fitness classes, we offer a physiotherapy-led, individualised approach. This means that you’ll be participating in an exercise programme that has been designed specifically for you, based on your goals and needs. You’ll experience expert care from our specialised team, who will take the time to get to know you, assess your symptoms and movement and create a personalised plan. They’ll then be there with you one to one to support and guide you through every session.
During all of your one to one Pilates classes at Complete Pilates you’ll have the opportunity to use all of the large Pilates equipment, including the reformer, the trapeze table, the wunda chair and the ladder-barrell.
Our areas of expertise are vast and our one to one Pilates classes are perfectly suited for:
- Rehabilitation for injuries, including the upper and lower body
- Rehabilitation for spinal injuries and conditions, including the neck thoracic and lumbar spine
- Rehabilitation for illness, including cancer rehab
- Treatment for osteoporosis and osteopenia
- Strength, conditioning and fitness training
- Improvement of posture and mobility
- Pre and post-natal exercise
- General health and wellbeing
Why should you come to a one to one Pilates class?
One to one Pilates classes are a great choice for those who have never done Pilates, as well as those who have tried it before.
One to one assessment, programme-design and supervision means you are participating in exercise that targets the areas you need most, whether that be strength, stability, mobility, endurance etc. A one to one environment also means that you are guided through each exercise with keen supervision, ensuring your technique is focussed and your exercises are modified accordingly. This can be particularly beneficial for those new to exercise and movement, those who have safety concerns such as poor balance or those who are experiencing acute or ongoing pain.
There are many benefits of Pilates including:
- Improved core strength
- Improved posture
- Increased body awareness
- Improved flexibility and mobility
- Improved balance and coordination
- Low impact exercise to reduce stress on joints
- Can be made partial weight-bearing to help with surgical recovery
- Mindfulness, stress management and relaxation
- Pain relief
- Improved breathing mechanics
- Improved sports performance
Choosing the right Pilates class in London
Choosing the right Pilates class can be a little daunting. At Complete Pilates we offer one to one classes in person and online, as well as small group classes.
If you have any medical complaints or history of recurrent pain, then we would strongly recommend starting with a one to one Pilates class. This is also suitable for those who have tried classes and haven’t quite enjoyed them, or feel they aren’t quite getting the hang of things just yet.
If you prefer to exercise with a family member or friend, or enjoy the community feel of a group class, we offer these as in person and online options also.
The next thing to decide is whether you would like to do mat or equipment and reformer Pilates classes.
At Complete Pilates, if you attend one of our studios, you’ll likely spend most of your time using the reformer and other Pilates equipment, alongside mat exercises that you can then practice at home. If you choose to work with us online, you can attend one of our group mat classes or opt for a one to one class where the instructor will base your class around whatever equipment you have available, such as resistance bands and weights.
The great thing about equipment and reformer Pilates is that it can be assistive or resistive. This means exercises can be easily modified for each person and exercise, depending if you want to make the resistance easier or harder and what aspect of the exercise you want to challenge, such as strength or stability. The great thing about mat Pilates is that it is incredibly accessible and can be done anywhere. It challenges you to know where your body is in space and uses your body weight for resistance so is great for building strength.
With in person and online options, and three convenient studios across London, you’re sure to find a class that suits you at Complete Pilates.
