In Mat work Pilates exercises are done standing up and lying down on an exercise mat. Small exercise equipment can be used, such as; Pilates ball, elastics, resistance bands, small weights and Pilates circle to bring more intensity and challenge into the classes

In Pilates Reformer exercises are done on the Pilates Reformer machine. Reformer creates more challenge for body's extremities and when using machine, class can be turned into a more intense workout for the whole body while still applying the Pilates principles.

(If you book this option, you are assumed to have an access to a Reformer machine)

Suitable for pregnant or recently delivered women.

Sculpting is a combination of different exercise methods, such as; Pilates, resistance and functional training. Results are toned, lean and longer body and defined muscle definition.

Resistance bands, weights or own bodyweight are used during the sessions.

In the stretching classes the focus is on creating bigger range of movement, mobility and flexibility in the body. It helps to release tension in the tight muscles, create more space and freedom in the movements and has a relaxing effect on the body and mind.

Yoga is a mind body discipline that originated in ancient India. It addresses the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of self. In western world it is presented more as posture-based physical fitness, stress-relief and relaxation technique where the traditional yoga goes deeper focusing on meditation and releasing from worldly attachments and suffering.
