When you realise that all the money that goes out of your paycheck and into your pension is going to be spent on doctors, physios and anti-inflammatories if you don't look after your body now! Seriously! Invest in your body now and not just whatvot looks like but how it feels and moves so that when you're 70, you can buy a race car and go to bingo in style 🤣

Pilates is not a list of exercise, it is a formula. A guidebook or map to stretching and strengthening the body that you are currently in - whether that is a body that feels stiff and sore and inflexible or one that already feela like it's moving well. No matter your age, stage or body type, Pilates can challenge and support your body as it navigates its own challenges, be it a triathalon, a weekly run, running around with your kids or relieving shoulders that feel stiff and tight from sitting at a desk all day! #pilatescork #reformerpilates #flexinthecity

Here is how to get the most out of the tiny but super powerful bendstretch exercise at the barre!

We don't believe in trying to 'fix you' with Pilates. We give you the tools to take control of your body to feel stronger and more confident in moving without pain or restriction. It's a process, you need to believe in the system of exercises and allow us to guide your movement, while giving us (and yourself!) feedback along the way. How does that feel now? What if you tried it this way? Can you push a little more here? At Flex, we want you to feel empowered to move, both in and out of the studio. With years of both training and experience behind us, we know we can guide you towards a body that moves well, doesn't feel 'clunky' or out of your control and that you feel confident in. #flexinthecity #pilatescork #movewell

You cannot multi-task presence. We are all so busy so when you make the effort to get to class, please do your best to be in the moment and pull all your focus into your body and the movement and the guidance of your teacher. Use your breath to pull yourself into the present and get the most out of the class. And just a reminder regarding smart watches and fitness trackers - PLEASE do not allow text or call notifications to distract you during class! If you are on call or need to have your phone with you for some reason, we absolutely get that and that is never a problem, otherwise, please ignore your watch until your last best breath of the day! #flexinthecity #pilatescork #barrecork

Q) I have never done Pilates / Reformer Pilates before? A) Start with a private session(s) so we can give you all the time and attention you need to get to grips with the basics. We suggest one of our New Client Starter Packs. You don’t have to decide straight away which one you would like to start with – book your first session and we can advise you from there. Q) I have done lots of Mat Pilates but never Reformer? A) Book in for just one private session (to give you a chance to become familiar with the Reformer equipment and to allow us to see how you are moving and give you modifications or challenges to suit your body before you join a group class). #pilates #reformerpilates #flexinthecity
