Jane Hamilton Pilates

Pilates for Stability

Nicola

Nicola joined our Pilates classes last year in the beginners class. She wanted to develop more stability around her hips and pelvis and to strengthen her legs, particularly her ankles which she felt were weak. Physiotherapy had helped but Nicola wanted to find a weekly class to help herself. With 2 classes per week Nicola soon built up stability and strength around her pelvis and hips and with the balance moves we do in class each week she has been able to build strength around her ankle joints and feel more stable and strong when stationary and when moving.

Nicola who has gained core stability, balance and strength through Pilates.

Hereʼs what Nicola has to say…

I started doing Pilates with Jane as I was looking to strengthen and stabilise my hips to help with some ankle and back pain. After completing the beginners course, I could already feel a significant improvement in my joints. Since moving up to the intermediate level, I continue to improve. As a bonus, I now have biceps to speak of and a smaller waist!

It is good to hear Nicola that you are enjoying the online Pilates classes and not only seeing an improvement in your joints but are feeling more toned in your muscles as an added benefit. Pilates is great for toning up and for weight loss.
