CLASS UPDATES FOR JUNE 2011
Classes are busier than ever at the moment with regulars keeping up their practice and plenty of newcomers wanting to discover the many benefits of regular practice of Pilates Matwork. Celebrity endorsements always have an impact on fitness trends and Pilates has seen a surge in interest due to Pippa Middleton claiming that her toned physique is all down to practicing Pilates! So if you have decided that you would like to take up this fabulous form of exercise please contact me directly so I can find the right class for you. You can call or text me on 07787 512617 or alternatively you can email: joanistcliere@aol.com.
POWER PILATES VERSUS CLASSICAL
I recently introduced a Power Pilates class on Tuesdays in Maldon at 7pm in order to provide a different style of Pilates for my regulars and also for newcomers. This class has proved to be extremely popular with both existing students and new comers alike. We tend to do more standing work in Power Pilates and there is more of an emphasis on Functional Fitness with the movements so that the body is learning to work in a way that helps us with movements we make in every day life. Power Pilates is suitable for most people as we still offer variations so that the individual can modify the movement to be more gentle or more demanding. Why not give this class a try?
AND FINALLY
I am currently trying to secure a regular venue for classes in Chelmsford, so please bear with me as finding a suitable venue is often the most challenging part of setting up a new class! I will keep you posted and will notify all class members when the Chelmsford Pilates classes are due to start!

WHATS NEW FOR MAY 2011?
We are delighted to inform you that we have had our busiest month ever at Essex Pilates Classes, with more people wanting to take classes or develop their existing practice. We believe that the level of interest in classes will increase even further given the fact that there has been so much hype about Pippa Middleton’s pert bottom and the fact that she believes that she has Pilates to thank for her greatly admired form! Of course regular Pilates class members have known this all along but it is nice to get such a public endorsement of the practice all the same.
POWER PILATES GETS THE THUMBS UP!
This month we introduced a new class which moves slightly away from the classical pilates which is taught in all of our standard classes. The Power Pilates class is generated from some very sound scientific research relating to bio-mechanics and functional fitness, so that the exercises practiced in class are designed to help strengthen and prepare the body for things that we do outside of class. The general feedback we have received has been extremely positive with some class members now attending traditional and also Power Pilates and others converting to Power Pilates in preference to classical. We encourage class members to work with the format that suits their body and also to make sure they enjoy the class they attend because a class has to be enjoyable to stick to our practice long term.
PILATES FOR CHELMSFORD
We have a waiting list for a Chelmsford based Pilates class, please be patient with us as we are trying to secure a suitable and convenient venue for this class at present but hope to have the class up and running for June 2011.
AND FINALLY
