Clinical Pilates Port Arlington – Personalised Pilates Studio
Introduction to Clinical Pilates
Exercise Pilates, also known as Clinical Pilates or mat Pilates, is run by a practitioner and aims to improve bodily function, flexibility, muscular strength, balance, and endurance. It uses selective and repetitive body movements with a particular focus on control and stability, helping to reduce and prevent pain caused by injury, accident, and overuse.
Our practitioners strive to understand your individual goals, build your confidence, and ultimately improve your physical abilities. Exercises are adapted to suit your level, with personalised support and technique correction provided throughout the class.
We enjoy exercise, and we are aware of the numerous health benefits that come from regular physical activities like Clinical Pilates.
Starting something new, joining a class, or initiating a new exercise program might feel daunting. Pilates is an excellent introduction to more intense workouts, a great method to supplement a demanding training schedule, and a perfect way to get active if you haven’t exercised in some time.
Whatever your fitness level, age, body shape, or health goal may be, our Clinical Pilates Instructors are committed to supporting you every step of the way.
When is it necessary to have an assessment?
It is highly recommended that you have a physiotherapy or osteopathy assessment prior to joining our classes for the first time, even if you have experience in Pilates groups in the past.
Practitioner-led Exercise Pilates can differ from public and gym-based group sessions. Clinical Pilates focuses on optimal movement, breathing, and control while moving through a sequence of exercises. Like any exercise, your body will be challenged, and it is important to have sufficient control and strength to avoid new strains and injuries.
An individual assessment by a physiotherapist or osteopath can examine your core stability, exercise form, and movement control to optimise your performance in each group class.
A complimentary exercise program may be developed to better prepare you for classes. If you are managing a specific injury, consulting a physiotherapist before joining the group can help us find the most suitable exercises for you and provide better support in the class environment. However, you can start classes without an assessment by completing a medical waiver.
If you are uncertain, please reach out to a member of our friendly team for more information.
