Pilates is not the equipment, the choreography or the exercise.
How the movement is performed, attention to the detail, the breath, how muscles are recruited and how the joints are aligned, how it is taught and prescribed makes it Pilates.

Be aware: there are many types of training out there, online, weekend, add ons to a fitness qualification, short ones run by fitness companies and then there are comprehensive Pilates trainings which adhere to association guidelines involving at a start 500 and many up to 1500+ hours for comprehenaive qualification. Where exams are taken, papers are written, observations and practice teaching are logged . Physical conditions and injuries are studied and what to do and most importantly what a client shouldn’t do are learned . Where continuing education and first aid is a requirement . Where safety is paramount, precision, breath and body alignment all really matter. Pilates does make a difference, it creates positive changes and heals bodies when done correctly . Otherwise it’s just exercise and not Pilates.

Feel the difference with Pure Moves teachers: We teach Pilates not exercises . ❤️

Lack of regulation for specialist classes leaves UK fitness enthusiasts at risk, say professional bodies

Great message to all the guys from England's Rugby player George Ford - who was previously taught by Liz! Kudos 👏👏

“In recent months, I’ve been doing a lot more pilates. I know that sounds funny but what it has done to help my hip, my back, my kicking, everything has been great. We feel as rugby ­players we’re strong. When you’re in the gym you can lift weights and stuff but that has exposed a few areas in terms of weaknesses. I wish I’d have started it a bit earlier.”

Some beautiful moments from Liz and Bea’s Pilates and yoga retreat in a small Berber village 30 mins from Marrakesh. They are feeling very grateful for all of you who joined them and made this such a magical ✨ retreat . They also want to send heart felt gratitude to all of the staff at Tigmi for their care, attention to detail and professionalism, truly the best team of staff anyone could ever wish for.

Bea and Liz have been running retreats here together for 10 years . The week starts with a morning class with everyone together and finishes with a class together. All the other mornings and afternoons the groups are split and you choose from, a gentle Pilates or a flow Pilates and a gentle yoga or a flow yoga . Whatever your level, from a novice to more experienced there is a class just right for you 💙 Bea and Liz weave themes throughout the week to inspire the body, mind and soul . In both the yoga and Pilates the classes begin with reflection or meditation and end with a relaxation and frequently a spectacular sunset on the rooftop terrace . yoga-retreat.co.uk
Next years retreat is October 11 - 18th 🤗
