Pilates designed around you. The OC believes firmly in the long-term care of our patients. We are obsessed with helping where others have failed. This is where we excel. We aim to support you in feeling and being fit and healthy. The bedrock of the OC way is finding out what and why you have issues. Then we target them.

This will keep your body in great condition and reduce the chances of injuries. The structure and function of the body are reciprocally related. Basically, you are what you do and what you can do is what you are. Obvious when you think about it.

  • Our Classes are based around your needs and you.
  • Our Classes are high quality, and we will not have more than 6 people in a class.
  • Your Pilates instructor knows you and your problems.
  • Progress through variations of each exercise to suit you.
  • Guaranteed Class place.

FAQ's

General Pilates classes are led by a Pilates teacher, qualified in teaching Pilates. Clinical Pilates is led by medical practitioners that are already highly trained in anatomy and physiology and pathology. They are already highly trained before they take the Clinical Pilates Course. There are many Pilates classes held everywhere you can choose. If you choose us, you have a qualified and registered Osteopath leading a small class of 6 or under. Our Osteopaths can help each person to achieve their goals within the class. Our Pilates members will benefit from a Bespoke experience where the Osteopath will support each person and their mechanics in the class individually.

We are qualified medical practitioners. Our Osteopaths work for us at Osteopathic Consultancy which means they are highly qualified and highly trained within our clinical practice. This puts us in a league above as practitioners and also as Pilates instructors. We are trained to analyse your strengths and weaknesses to design the classes to suit you. Design and modify the class around your needs. We offer this top-level Pilates support that is unmatched in our area.

General Pilates makes your body strong and mobile by using movement patterns. When you add the bespoke nature of our clinicians leading the sessions it becomes highly effective and extremely safe. Many times, in our clinic we see patients who have gone back to or attended Pilates sessions that were unsuitable for them and sustained an injury. We will monitor and support you with us in your Pilates journey. Each Pilates session is personally tailored to your ability and your need. Therefore our classes have 6 or less people, giving each person the quality bespoke support, they need.

Clinical Pilates is suitable for nearly all abilities. The classes are suitable for complete beginners right up to anyone who has been doing Pilates for years. Because we have such small class sizes, we can focus on each person individually and tailor the exercises to be safe and effective just for you.

Before you attend our Pilates session you will complete a consultation for a 1-1 with your Pilates instructor. Our clinician will make sure they know you, your abilities and underlying issues.

We make our pricing simple and clear and transparent. The Clinical Pilates membership entitles you to one session a week. If you cannot make a class and if there is space in a different class that week you are more than welcome to change classes with your instructor. If your instructor feels it is appropriate you can have a make-up session that’s not with your instructor. This is at both the instructor’s clinical decision.
