Element Pilates Studio

As a total newcomer to Pilates for a year now knowing very little at all; I thought I would share a perspective with the hope of encouraging others like me to go ahead and take control of their health and their bodies. My Wife was referred to Pilates by her GP to assist in recovery from a Brain concussion and Vestibular issues and I noticed after a few months her posture improving, her body becoming more toned and a general excitement and positivity I had not ever noticed before. She finally got me to a class at Elements Pilates on the pretext of a fun date night and I cannot thank her enough. For context, I am 59 Yrs old, ex-Marathon runner, countless Half Marathons and still running 15-20 Km’s a week but with a tightening body, lower back pain and overall aches and pains from sitting too much and not embracing stretching correctly for most of my Life. Fearful of getting worse into my 60’s and beyond, I knew I had to do something NOW to change direction. I found a warm, welcoming non judgemental environment from all the Instructors at Elements. They guide us in a fun, informal atmosphere paying attention to areas that each of us find challenging. It is a rare mix of passion for Pilates combined with a patient understanding of meeting us at our needs. True individual attention and support Evey class. A Bonus is you can ask any question and then their knowledge and wisdom of the human body comes to the fore. Shauna has attracted phenomenal teachers like Katya and Ruth who make every class different and you leave feeling totally incredible. What is more important than our health and vitality? Go and make time for yourself… give it some time ,true results don’t happen overnight. Commit and do it, you deserve it and your body will thank you forever. Well done Shauna and Team!
