Fitness Pilates

What is the course about?

Fitness Pilates is a fresh approach to classic Pilates, a fantastic way to identify basic posture and movement imbalances, to increase body strength from the core and work on balance. You will use the resistance band to strengthen the upper and lower body.

This is a live online course. You will need:
- Internet connection. The classes work best with Chrome.
- A computer with microphone and camera is best (e.g. a PC/laptop/iMac/MacBook), or a tablet/iPad/smart phone/iPhone if you don't have a computer.
- Earphones/headphones/speakers.
We will contact you with joining instructions before your course starts.
