Pilates is a form of low-impact exercise that aims to strengthen muscles while improving postural alignment, flexibility and mobility. If you’re looking for functional movement—the kind that helps you move better on a day-to-day basis with everyday tasks—Pilates can train you in that. Pilates lengthens and stretches all the major muscle groups in your body in a balanced fashion.

Irihipeti’s one on one pilates sessions are personalised to each person and exercises are regularly re-evaluated to ensure they are appropriate for you. This includes understanding our individual cyclical rhythms and how the maramataka can and does affect our cycles.

Due to the individual attention, this method can suit everybody from elite athletes to people with limited mobility, pregnant people, those with injury and/or low fitness levels.

The health benefits of Pilates include:

• improved flexibility

• increased muscle strength and tone

• balanced muscular strength on both sides of your body
