PILATES EXERCISE

The Centre is dedicated providing you the best possible start to your Pilates program. When you join the Centre you will begin with an Evaluation Bundle that consists of a thorough Initial Evaluation and three Private Instruction Sessions.   After you have completed your Evaluation Bundle you are free to choose any of the following Pilates workout styles in any combination:

• Open Studio

• Private Instruction

• Instructor Led Classes

Initial Evaluation: To begin your Pilates exercise regime the Physical Conditioning Centre conducts a thorough initial Evaluation. The goal of the Evaluation is to understand your body’s unique history and needs so we can design a Pilates exercise protocol specifically for you. The Evaluation includes a mapping of boney landmarks and diagnostic exercises. No two bodies are identical and no two Pilates programs should be identical. Your Pilates exercise protocol will be monitored by our staff and re-Evaluations conducted periodically to ensure your Pilates exercise regime stays finely tuned for your body.

Private Instruction Sessions: After your Evaluation, you will receive three private sessions with one of our certified instructors. In the private sessions you will master the principles of Pilates exercise. The one-on-one instruction ensures you are executing the Pilates exercises correctly. Correct form is important to maximize the effectiveness of your Pilates workout and to ensure your comfort and safety. The combination of the Evaluation and three Private Instruction sessions gives you an excellent personalized foundation for all your future Pilates workouts. Of course Private Instruction is not just a part of the Evaluation Bundle, it is always available to be scheduled for anyone who chooses.

Open Studio: Upon completion of the Private Instruction sessions, you will be ready to workout in the instructor supervised Open Studio. The Open Studio allows for up to a 1 ½ hour Pilates exercise workout scheduled at your convenience. You will have access to our large inventory of Pilates equipment.  Your protocol will still be carefully supervised and consistently adjusted for your maximum health benefit.  During the Open Studio, instructors wander the room, monitoring and gently correcting positions.  All clients at the PCC receive personal attention.

Instructor Led Classes: As your Pilates exercise proficiency increases, you will be able to participate in a wider variety of classes offered at various times of the day.  You are free to use any combination of classes, open studio, or private sessions.
