Physical and Postural Assessment

Pre-Class Assessment

Everyone needs a pre-class assessment. It may be free and over the phone if I need some questions answered about your health questionnaire. Or it will be an in person assessment.

​

The in-person assessment (60mins / £59) is to assess your posture, mobility and muscle strength. It will introduce you to the two key elements of pilates: breath and centering (core and pelvic floor engagement and neutral pelvis). These are the foundations you will need to strengthen your body safely and effectively in a group class. This assessment option is recommended if you are new to pilates, have a special condition (osteoporosis, hyper flexibility, low back pain, hip bursitis, joint replacements, scoliosis) or are post injury. 

​

Please wear a fitted t-shirt and either exercise leggings or shorts to your assessment, a different colour top to bottoms. Hair ideally off your face and neck. 

​

Please bring a towel or mat to your assessment at Goring-on-Thames.
