Pilates

Pilates is a form of exercise focused on improving flexibility, strength and overall body awareness. The exercises emphasise pelvic strength and pelvic alignment, making Pilates particularly valuable for rehabilitation, injury prevention, recovery, and improving posture, core strength and overall fitness.

At MEPS we offer 1-to-1 Pilates sessions led by our highly qualified, experienced in-house Pilates instructors. Each session is fully tailored to your unique needs, fitness level and goals, with a customised plan to help you reach your targets efficiently.

1-to-1 Pilates is suitable for anyone, from beginners to experienced exercisers. It is especially valuable for women going through pregnancy or postnatal recovery, anyone with pelvic floor or core weakness, people rehabilitating from injury or surgery, and those wanting to improve posture, flexibility and strength.

Our Pilates sessions are 1-to-1 and led by instructors with clinical experience working alongside physiotherapists. This means your programme is informed by your individual physiotherapy assessment (if relevant), addresses specific weaknesses or areas of concern, and progresses safely as you build strength.

Yes. Pilates is ideal for postnatal recovery because it focuses on pelvic strength, pelvic alignment and core stability — exactly what many women need to rebuild after pregnancy and birth. We recommend a Mummy MOT first to assess any specific issues, then a tailored Pilates programme to support full recovery.

No. Pilates is suitable for all fitness and flexibility levels, including complete beginners. Your instructor will assess your starting point and design exercises that are appropriate, building gradually as you improve. The whole approach is about meeting you where you are and helping you progress.
