Emma Mackenzie Pilates is a studio in Aylesbury that offers Pilates classes aimed at improving posture, reducing pain and injury, enhancing overall wellbeing, and optimising sporting performance. The studio is led by Emma, a qualified Sports Therapist and Body Control Pilates Instructor, who also has additional training in pre and post-natal Pilates and Osteoporosis.
Body Control Pilates is the chosen method practised at Emma Mackenzie Pilates. This world-leading education in Pilates teaching focuses on a comprehensive programme of exercises for both mat and machine work. The exercises are adapted from the classical Pilates repertoire developed by Joseph Pilates. However, the studio believes that these classical exercises may not be suitable for the average person and body.
Therefore, Emma breaks down these exercises to establish good movement skills as the foundation for progress toward more advanced work.
The studio emphasises the importance of working safely and effectively to gain the full benefits of Pilates. The Body Control Pilates Method at Emma Mackenzie Pilates is remarkably effective, medically-approved, and holistic. It is built upon a well-constructed philosophical foundation centred around the awareness of one's own body. Each exercise is designed with this awareness in mind and is guided by eight basic principles: Relaxation, Concentration, Co-ordination, Centering, Alignment, Breathing, Stamina, and Flowing Movements.
Emma Mackenzie Pilates offers both group classes and personalised 1:1 sessions to support individuals in their movement journey. Emma herself is known for being welcoming and creating an inclusive environment for people of all abilities, from beginners to advanced practitioners. Many of the studio's clients have noticed improvements in posture, muscle strength, and overall movement since attending Emma's classes.
