Pilates for Dancers

PILATES FOR DANCERS  |  WHAT DOES IT INVOLVE?

Introducing the Pilates Mat Work Method and its extensive body conditioning benefits for dancers. Pilates is an essential exercise system for dancers, activating and working those deep, hard to isolate muscles, resulting in strength, tone, control and grace – everything a ballerina needs!

Pilates perfectly supports and compliments the tough expectations on a dancer’s body with Joseph Pilates originally working with professional ballet dancers of the New York City Ballet at his Manhattan studio since the 1920’s. With a mindful focus on conditioning, key exercises target core strengthening, postural alignment, coordination and tracking of limbs offering dancers a way to improve technique as well as rehabilitate from injury safely and effectively.

With the Pilates practice, students can expect a full body workout whilst learning a valuable tool kit of helpful exercises to support ongoing training.

TESTIMONIALS

Mae
Young Ballet student: Private 1:1 class - Aspiring professional dancer
I have always loved to dance but my one weakness has is my core strength. After several classes I have felt a massive change and ballet steps are becoming easier. The exercises really help me to understand how to incorporate the breathing and use of my core into my dancing. My mother has also seen a big change in how l perform. Vanessa has helped me gain more confidence in my dancing and l am forever thankful for how much stronger she has made me.

Ruth
Adult Ballet & Pilates student - Group class
I have attended Adult Pilates and Adult Ballet classes with Vanessa since January 2015. During this time Vanessa has inspired me to dance again and has enabled me to get in better shape without really realising it. Vanessa tailors every Pilates class to suit the students in front of her, taking into account their needs and injuries. She explains the purpose of every exercise fully and takes the time to give a different version of an exercise where necessary. I highly recommend her classes.

Charlotte
Adult Ballet & Pilates student - Group class
Vanessa's Pilates mat work classes have been invaluable for improving my ballet technique. I thoroughly enjoy her classes, she gives clear instructions and adjusts each student to ensure you get the maximum out of each class. It's also really helped with my day-to-day posture and even my confidence. She also really cares for her students and adjusts the exercises according to our needs and abilities.

Testimonials

Alex K
Duet class - New bride

Vanessa is an outstanding Pilates teacher. Her understanding of my body and how I wanted to shape it was immediate. In the run up to my wedding, her weekly classes became a godsend amongst the stress of planning the big day. With a strapless wedding dress, it was all about the ARMS – but I was so chuffed to see the changes it made to every part of my body in the months leading up to wedding – arms, tummy, bum – all saw a big change. Not only that, but our workouts were definitely the times in the week where I could really chill out. Even after a stressful day I felt relaxed and positive after a session with Vanessa. So knowledgeable, so fab – I couldn’t recommend her enough!
