This month, let’s try: Pilates Fitness Pilates, as Leti teaches it, incorporates balance, flexibility, strength and stability using the concepts of fitness and drawing on Pilates and yoga. It is suitable for both the beginner and the more experienced fitness enthusiast as each session takes the individual from where they are to their own new level. Pilates focuses on learning to use our deep core muscles which then helps our posture, breathing and digestion as well as improving our strength and balance. Relaxation is included in each session so do bring a warmer layer to pop on! If you are interested, inform Deirdre Ryan Volunteer Coordinator (077 6519 3126) .
