Reformer & Matwork Pilates for Absolute Beginners ..Calm, Supportive and Easy to Start
Have you been wanting to try Pilates, but felt unsure where to begin?
Maybe you have never stepped onto a Reformer before. Maybe you feel stiff, unfit, nervous, older than the people you see in Pilates advertising, or worried you will not know what to do.
Our Beginners Pilates classes are designed to help you feel safe, supported and confident from the very beginning. We specialise in beginner-friendly Reformer Pilates and Pilates Matwork for people who want to build strength, stability, posture and flexibility without the pressure of a fast gym-style workout.
You do not need to be fit.
You do not need to be flexible.
You do not need previous Pilates experience.
You just need the right place to start.
Or perhaps you have tried Pilates somewhere else and left feeling uncomfortable — the class was too fast, too athletic, too crowded, too loud, or simply not suited to your body.
At Wellness Centre Wollongong, beginners are genuinely welcome.
