Wed 3rd Dec Barre+Core TRIAL

Class Description

Come along and try this faster paced, upbeat full body toning class mixing ballet inspired exercises and Pilates! Suitable for people with prior Pilates experience, but no previous ballet experience is needed. The class will start running weekly (sold as blocks) from January onward. Feel graceful while exercising! The first half of the class consists of ballet inspired toning exercises for the lower and upper body done mid-floor and at the ballet barre (in the hall we use chairs), while also working your core using the principles of Pilates core engagement and postural alignment. The second half of the class is core-focused Pilates exercises on the mat, performed like a dance to the flow of the music at a faster pace compared to your normal mat Pilates class. One could call this way of performing Pilates exercises as Pilates Flow. Think of it as in your normal Pilates class you take your time to fully learn the Pilates repertoire, in Barre+Core you get to play with those skills and "dance" through the exercises. Therefore previous Pilates experience is essential. We use props such as resistance bands and loops, Pilates circles and balls in the class. You need to be at least at improver level in Pilates so that you understand the basics of core engagement, breathing and alignment. Please bring your own mat, all other props are provided. Time: Wednesday 3rd December 5.30-6.25pm. Venue: 5th Fife Scout Group, 10 Dunnikier Road, Kirkcaldy, KY1 2RU. Free street parking on St Mary's Road, and council street parking and car parks nearby. Cancellation policy: No refunds are given if you cancel your space or you don't turn up on the day. You can request a 7 Days On-Demand video access or make up taking another class.
