Corporate Pilates

Since the recognition of its effectiveness, Pilates has continued to grow in popularity. Movement is fast becoming a necessity in people’s lives due to the sedentary nature of many of our work environments and lifestyles.

Pilates in the workplace is an excellent way to help you and your employees benefit from movement.

Here are just a few of the benefits:

• Postural awareness and correction
• Reduced tension and stress
• Higher team morale
• Increased work efficiency
• Reduced risk of injury and Workcover claims
• An overall sense of wellbeing and relaxation
• Increased tone and flexibility
• Improved core strength

The key to healthy posture lies in understanding and developing an awareness of your body.

A majority of your day may be spent sitting, standing, lifting or otherwise and can determine the postural habits and problems from which you suffer. Along with your individual posture type, the postural habits you take on board over the years can lead to muscle imbalance and eventually to pain.

Penny has developed a unique corporate program whereby InForm Pilates provides the education needed to understand posture; how it can contribute to tightness or pain within your body, and more importantly how to correct it.

Elements of the Program are:

A. Posture and Pilates Seminar

B. Individual Client Analysis

C. Pilates Mat Classes

All elements of the program can be booked independently or as a package (see Package Structures below)

A. Posture and Pilates Seminar

A presentation on posture and how Pilates based exercise can benefit and improve your posture both in and outside the workplace.

This presentation educates your staff of the importance posture has in maintaining a healthy body as well as giving an understanding and over view of postural types and habits and how they can be corrected for optimum balance within the body.

A discussion will follow allowing the opportunity for any questions to be asked regarding either posture or Pilates.

During the course of these classes a strong emphasis is placed on education and awareness during exercise.

Education and awareness is the key for you to take charge of your body enabling enhanced strength, flexibility and centring.
