Introduction to Pilates is an easy-to-follow 30 minute class that has been created specifically to introduce and guide newcomers through some of the most common, simple and effective mat based Pilates exercises. Introduction to Pilates is ideal for those with little or no previous experience who wish to enjoy Pilates and its many benefits. The class uses clear, expert instruction to provide a well structured workout that gives all the information you need to lay a solid foundation before you progress onto beginner level audio classes or attend classes at a gym, studio or anywhere else. For those of you who are visual learners, the Introduction to Pilates class is accompanied by a free PDF guide booklet that highlights the instructions and provides reference photographs of each exercise. The class is instructed by Lucy Owen. Lucy specialises in teaching newcomers and in this class she deliberately instructs each exercise slowly whilst providing all the information needed for you to be performing them correctly, effectively and safely.

About Lucy Owen:
Lucy is a Firefighter, accomplished horsewoman, gymnast and fitness fanatic who discovered Pilates and it's many benefits in 1998. She then decided to train as an instructor and has since become a highly respected teacher specialising in introducing beginners to mat based Pilates techniques. She oozes energy and vitality from every pore of her body and she is the perfect example of the benefits Pilates provides. "Pilates is a fantastic form of exercise for everyone! It is a balanced conditioning program that is suitable for people of all ages and abilities. Whether it is improved core stability, injury rehabilitation, improved sporting performance or a flatter tummy you are aiming to achieve, Pilates can help with them all! Many people who use my classes have commented on how much longer and leaner they feel after just a few sessions and they soon become hooked on the benefits of a regular Pilates practice."
