Feel great for Christmas and the new year ahead with Livestreamed Pilates classes with Fiona from PilatesinExeter

If you're feeling too busy to exercise at the moment, perhaps with work, family commitments, and Christmas preparations taking up your time, an online class from the comfort of home could be the solution you're looking for.

Held every Monday at 8.15 am and Wednesday at 8.45am via Zoom, they provide a comprehensive full-body workout in an enjoyable and time-effective way.

The classes use 1 to 3K hand weights and bands. If you have other equipment, such as the Pilates roller, Magic circle, Pilates balls, and leg weights, they are also incorporated into the session.
Along with some balance work, all muscle groups are stretched and strengthened, and each class finishes with some relaxation time.

Here’s what regular attendee Gillian Taylor has to say,
“The online class is a great way to squeeze some exercise into my week. I don’t need to travel anywhere, and it’s like having a brilliant teacher in my living room. Fiona makes the classes interesting, and somehow manages to give us a great range of exercises without it feeling too difficult. A Pilates class first thing gives me extra energy for the whole day!”

To join a class, contact fiona@pilatesinexeter.co.uk or call 07531 729383

Costs - £7 a session PAYG, with reductions to £5 a session if you sign up for the whole term.

More details at www.pilatesinexeter.co.uk

If you’re new to Pilates, a private induction session is also available.

Hope to see you soon.
Fiona

More about Fiona Swan

Pilates in Exeter is run by Fiona Swan, fully qualified and insured Personal Trainer, and Pilates instructor who is also a Level 4 specialist in ‘Exercise for Lower Back Pain’. Fiona’s ethos is very much about being people centred and providing high quality and enjoyable classes that many will want to return to time after time.

During the Covid 19 outbreak Fiona is running online classes for the very first time and is finding it’s an effective way for individuals to keep fit and well at home. Online classes combined with other outdoor activities could well become the most time efficient way to keep strong and active.

In addition to Pilates Fiona is also a Nordic Walking UK instructor and runs training and walks at beautiful Haldon Forest Park and National Trust Killerton. Nordic walking, using poles to walk, is a full body workout which uses the upper body as well as the legs. It’s effective cardio vascular exercise which is kind to joints. To find out more see www.nordicwalkingdevon.co.uk

To find out more about Pilates and have a look at my page and my website www.pilatesinexeter.co.uk to find out how to get started. Pilates is a great way to stretch and strengthen the whole body. Plus if you have any joint or muscular issues it’s a very gentle and careful way to exercise. Beginning with the Pilates fundamentals my classes will introduce you to the basics and a series of exercises to work the whole body. Exercises are layered or adapted so that you can work safely and at your own level.
