Discover Pilates at BodyBlitz Fitness: Matwork, Reformer & Everything In Between....

Pilates is so much more than just exercise – it’s a powerful, intelligent movement method that supports strength, mobility, posture, confidence and long‑term health at every stage of life. At **BodyBlitz**, Pilates sits at the heart of what I do, and I’m so excited to now offer **Reformer Pilates** alongside my much‑loved **Matwork Pilates classes**.

With over **23 years’ experience as a Matwork Pilates instructor**, I’ve seen first‑hand how transformative Pilates can be – not just physically, but mentally too. Whether you’re new to Pilates, returning after a break, managing aches or injuries, or simply wanting to feel stronger and more connected to your body, there is a Pilates option here for you.

Why Matwork Pilates Is Truly Wonderful:

Matwork Pilates is where it all begins – and in my opinion, it remains one of the most effective, accessible and empowering ways to move your body.

Matwork uses your own body weight, gravity and mindful control to build:

* Deep core strength

* Better posture and alignment

* Improved balance and coordination

* Flexibility without strain

* Stronger, more resilient joints

Because matwork relies on **control rather than momentum**, it teaches you how to move well – skills that transfer into everyday life, sport and other forms of exercise. It can be gentle or challenging, restorative or dynamic, and it’s endlessly adaptable.

Over the years, I’ve specialised in making Matwork Pilates inclusive and supportive for real bodies and real lives.

Specialist Pilates for Every Stage of Life:

Alongside my extensive matwork experience, I hold specialist qualifications in:

* **Pre & Postnatal Pilates** – supporting women safely through pregnancy and beyond

* **Older Adults Pilates** – focusing on balance, bone health, strength and confidence

* **Orthopaedic Pilates** – ideal for those managing injuries, joint issues or persistent pain

This means my classes aren’t generic. Every session is thoughtfully layered, with options, regressions and progressions so you feel supported, challenged and safe – always.

Standing & Seated Pilates – Pilates That Fits You

Pilates doesn’t always have to happen on the mat.

I also teach **standing and seated Pilates**, which is fantastic for:

* Those who struggle getting up and down from the floor

* Improving functional strength and balance

* Supporting mobility, posture and joint health

* Building confidence with movement

This style of Pilates is especially popular with older adults, beginners, and anyone wanting a gentler yet highly effective approach.

Introducing Reformer Pilates at BodyBlitz:

I’m thrilled to now offer **Reformer Pilates** in my studio – a natural progression that beautifully complements matwork.

The reformer uses springs, straps and a moving carriage to:

* Support your body where needed

* Add resistance to build strength

* Improve control, alignment and mobility

* Create endless exercise possibilities

Reformer Pilates is incredible for:

* Beginners who benefit from added support

* Injury rehabilitation and joint‑friendly strength work

* Deep core connection

* Clients wanting a more personalised, precision‑based session
