Hello East Auckland Community
The F.I.T Method has officially been open at Crawford Wellness Centre for just over a month! We have had a few weeks to settle into the timetable and we are very excited to offer you many fabulous options.
The weekly timetable (photo attached) includes class for all ages, stages, and phases. We understand that it can feel daunting and overwhelming to join a new class or start anything new and unfamiliar, but the team at The F.I.T Method are extremely welcoming, friendly, and helpful. We strive to provide a service and space that helps you feel very comfortable, supported, and inspired.
Here is a list of class descriptions to give you a good understanding of what is available ~
PILATES FOUNDATION
This is suitable for beginners and seasoned athletes. It is a slow paced full-body workout focused on body-mind connection. This will help reinforce your core, posture, breath, and control.
PILATES STRENGTH
This is designed for those wanting to add layers ontop of their core foundation strength. In this class we offer small pilates equipment plus more of an upbeat style and energy. You will feel challenged and satisfied.
YOGALATES
A fusion of pilates & yoga. Enjoy a strong yoga style with many standing poses, balancing, & sun salutations. Then challenge your core with some strong pilates. Finish with a deep, slow stretch and relaxation. It is the ultimate bodyweight workout.
BARRE ATHLETIC
The best combination of pilates & ballet inspired movement. We lengthen, strengthen, balance, pulse, get your heart rate going, and your body glowing.
This a strong, liberating workout.
STRETCH & FLOW
A gentle, soft session to release, relax, and restore. The focus is breath & tension release, for mind, body, and soul.
WALKING CLUB
Join us for a brisk walk through the hills of Howick. We walk, talk, and solve many problems along the way. Bring sunnies, hat,walking shoes, water, and cash for a sneaky coffee on the way back.
We finish with a stretch at the reserve or in the studio.
CHAIR PILATES
This is a rehab focused class.
We use the chair as support for joints. This is a very small group of only six people. It is very safe, slow, and gentle to ease your tightness, inflammation, discomfort, and stress.
GOLD PILATES
For over 65s. Join the Golden Girls for a fabulous pilates workout to release joints, strengthen muscles, and keep you youthful and agile.
HATCH
Mums and bubs post-natal pilates. Bring your little cherub and give yourself some time to reconnect with your body.
The class is limited to four mums and bubs.
We also offer F.I.T KIDS CLUB & FAMILY INTERACTIVE TRAINING. These sessions will be available in the January school holidays for those looking to keep kids fit and occupied. Keep a look out on social media & the Mindbody App for updates.
If you are after something soothing and restorative, you will love the upcoming DAY RETREAT on Saturday 6th December 2-7pm. The focus is calm in the chaos of Christmas. We offer you a sanctuary to soothe your senses and boost your energy well beyond Christmas day.
