WHAT IS YOGALATES?

Yogalates is our blended class inspired by Yoga and Pilates, as its name suggests. It harnesses the physical and mental benefits of both practices, and it is a comprehensive exercise system. It fuses the strength and stretchy components of Yoga and the Core and Control of Pilates.

WHAT IS YOGA?

Yoga is an ancient form of exercise that focuses on strength, flexibility and breathing to boost physical and mental wellbeing. The main components of yoga are postures (a series of movements designed to increase strength and flexibility) and breathing.

The practice originated in India about 5,000 years ago and has been adapted in other countries in a variety of ways. Yoga is now commonplace in leisure centres, health clubs, schools, hospitals and surgeries.

Why Join a Class?

Ten Reasons to try a Yogalates session:

Improved Posture

Hours spent sitting in front of a computer screen or slumped in front of a TV means that the spine’s natural S shape is lost, resulting in back pain and rounded shoulders.

Relief from Back Pain

A great deal of lower back pain comes from poor posture and our daily mistreatment of our spines. By re-aligning your spine and improving your posture, lower back pain can often be eliminated entirely.

A GOOD NIGHT’S SLEEP

Pilates and Yoga can help stretch muscles, releasing tension and pain, and it can also help trigger natural sleep responses.

INCREASE YOUR STRENGTH AND STAMINA WITHOUT ADDING MUSCLE BULK

Pilates and Yoga helps increase both your strength and stamina without adding unwanted bulk because it focuses on developing your “core” muscles – muscles found in your abdominal and pelvic regions as well as in your back. By toning and stretching these muscles, and by correcting your posture, your natural strength and stamina will improve in leaps and bounds.

PILATES AND YOGA CAN HELP PREVENT OSTEOPOROSIS

One in two women and one in five men are at risk of breaking a bone, mainly because of a bone disorder called osteoporosis. Osteoporosis affects three million people in the UK every year, with bones (and particularly those of the spine, wrist and hips) becoming thin and weak and susceptible to fractures. By promoting good posture and balance, Pilates and Yoga can actively help you avoid becoming one of those people.

A GREAT WAY TO RELAX AND BEAT STRESS

Using the theory of linking breathing with moving that literally re-introduces you to your own body. And the better you understand your body and how it works, the easier it will be for you to release tension, relax and beats the stresses and strains of modern life.

HELP WITH PREVENTION OF INCONTINENCE

Stress incontinence is the most common form of incontinence and affects over three million people in the UK. A common cause of this type of incontinence in women is pregnancy, where the pelvic floor muscles can be weakened, but as we get older muscles in the pelvic area can weaken too. Pilates and Yoga will help you strengthen your pelvic floor muscles, thereby curing what can be a very distressing problem for sufferers.

IMPROVE YOUR BALANCE AND CO-ORDINATION

Pilates and Yoga helps improve your balance and co-ordination by realigning your spine and strengthening your “core” muscles. And better balance and co-ordination means fewer injuries – hence Pilates and Yoga growing popularity among professional sports people – from dancers to rugby players.

HELPS AID RECOVERY AFTER INJURY – AND PREVENT INJURY RECURRING

Because of its low impact nature, Pilates and Yoga is widely recognised as being beneficial to people who are recovering from certain types of injury including whiplash and a wide range of sporting injuries. Indeed, many of the injuries that sports people are afflicted with can be avoided.

NO PAIN PLENTY GAIN!

In most gyms you will hear the mantra “no pain, no gain”, but you won’t hear it repeated in a Pilates or Yoga studio. These sessions offer a gentle non-aerobic form of exercise that will tone and strengthen your muscles and transform poor posture without stressing the joints or the heart.

Thank you, Dan and Lisa, from two much fitter retirees

Yoga with Dan is the best start to my day. I arrive stressed from the traffic and within 5 mins I am transported to a world of yoga flow, where every move just pushes stress away. By the end of each class I feel about 4 inches taller, I have been stretched to my limit but with no pain. Dan is so encouraging but is good at correcting misplaced feet, elbows and knees. Thanks Dan, you are keeping me supple and relaxed, but I’m not sure I will ever be able to do the splits!
