Clinical Pilates Classes

The Clinical Pilates classes at The Broad Street Practice are taught by Emily Rule, one of our physiotherapists who is a fully trained APPI instructor with the skill and knowledge to work with clients of all levels and the flair and ability to keep classes progressive, interesting and fun.  As a physiotherapist she us experienced in assessment and treatment of a variety of clinical presentations.

The small class sizes and expert tuition guarantees the exercises are performed correctly. Your instructor is able to understand any personal and physical challenges and limitations you may have and help you to progress naturally and safely.

Pilates exercises target the deep postural muscles to re-balance the body, build muscle strength and stability and ensure correct postural alignment, which in turn restores natural movement. Pilates helps reshape and strengthen your body and the exercise repertoire consists of exercises to perfect balance between strength, flexibility and improve function. It is also a great way to relieve stress and unwanted tension.

Pilates is the perfect form of exercise for everyone; from the athlete looking to enhance their performance and avoid injury to first-time exercisers or those returning to exercise after injury or illness.
