Attending class

I will be providing all the necessary kit including mats, however, feel free to bring your own it you would prefer.
Make sure you wear comfortable clothes that do not restrict movement.
While drinking water is readily available, where possible please bring your own drinking bottle or vessel.
Have something warm to wear after exercise.
Bring something comfortable for placing your head on when in a side lying or supine position e.g. a folded towel or cushion.
I have purchased extra large mats to ensure you have a comfortable area of designated work-out space while on the floor.

Please do not attend class if you have any symptoms of an infectious nature or have tested positive for Covid.
Please be respectful of other people's distancing needs.
I will be providing non-toxic but effective sanitising options to clean equipment after class.
The studio space is very well ventilated with windows on all sides.
While I provide all equipment including mats - if you are more comfortable using your own please feel free.

For existing clients, I have a library of pre-recorded classes as an added benefit under my private website section "RECORDED".
These are available as a substitute if and when needed.
Make sure you set up an account and password when accessing my website.
Please contact me if you would like to access the library so I can grant you access.

An important element of Pilates is providing hands on cues and correction where necessary so clients can feel the difference in terms of alignment, position and muscular contraction.
It is therefore necessary to keep classes small - in the studio I allow a maximum 10 people with mats.
Beginners classes are a maximum of 8.

I do offer a Zoom option for existing studio clients who may wish to drop in from home on occasions for convenience or if they are not feeling well.
I offer a Zoom only class option for a small number of clients who prefer to join my live studio classes by Zoom only. Please see term pricing list.
Please check with me first if you wish to attend class by Zoom.
I will send you a link to my Zoom account.
You will need a device with video and a mic that allows you to see me and me to see you.
You will need a stable internet connection.
I have clients joining successfully every week from abroad, so there is no excuse in missing a class!

I run a system of class catch ups. Where a class is missed during a term a client may book a catch up in another class where a space is available.
Clients are welcome to carry over a catch up to the following term - I work with an honour credit system!
If a regular client plans to be away for a significant number of classes during one term, I will hold their place for one term a year and they just pay for the individual classes they attend.
