Are you the owner of Pilates For You?
Welcome to Pilates For You, a leading Pilates studio located in the HERTS AND BEDS area, including HITCHIN, ARLESEY, and LETCHWORTH. The studio is owned and operated by Margaret Brabrook, a certified Pilates instructor with years of experience in the field.
At Pilates For You, classes are suitable for individuals of all ages and abilities. Margaret ensures that each class has a maximum of 12 participants, allowing her to provide personal attention and guidance during matwork sessions. She takes the time to understand the needs of her clients to adapt exercises accordingly, ensuring safety and effectiveness.
Margaret obtained her Pilates certification from Body Control Pilates, which is widely recognised as the most comprehensive training available. This certification meets the UK national standard for Pilates (Level 3 Pilates), ensuring that clients receive quality instruction. Margaret is also a member of the Body Control Pilates Association and is committed to ongoing training by attending workshops and teaching weekends with BCP. This dedication allows her to provide clients with the latest concepts and changes in the ever-growing world of Pilates.
Whether you are new to Pilates or have been practising for years, Pilates For You has something to offer. Margaret's expertise and personalised approach make her classes suitable for individuals with varying goals and fitness levels. If you have any questions or would like to get in touch, Margaret's contact details are available on the website.
The classes at Pilates For You are designed to ensure that each participant gets the best workout for their individual needs. Exercises are broken down into stages of complexity, and participants move to the next stage only when they are comfortable and safe. For those new to Pilates, Margaret recommends starting with a 1:1 session to gain a basic knowledge of the exercises before joining a group class.
The studio offers a variety of classes, including a speciality class on Wednesday mornings in Hitchin. This class is designed for individuals with more serious issues, such as autoimmune problems, post-surgery recovery, or neurological spinal pain like sciatica. The focus is on building strength, mobility, flexibility, and confidence, with a slower pace and attention to precision of movements. Participants work within their personal range of movement and pain levels.
To join a class, enrolment in advance is required. The fee covers a block of six consecutive weekly hour-long classes. If a class is missed, refunds or carryovers to the next block are not possible. However, participants can make up for a missed class by attending any other available classes, provided there are spaces.
Due to the ongoing issues with COVID-19, Pilates For You is no longer able to provide mats and other equipment. Participants will need to bring their own kit, which includes a mat, head cushions, block, 2 prickly balls, and a stretchy band. Margaret can assist with the purchase of these items if needed.
Regularly attending classes at Pilates For You will not only improve your posture but also contribute to overall wellbeing. The studio offers competitive prices for both classes and personal sessions. The fee for a six-week block of classes is 57, while a personal 1:1 session is priced at 40 and a shared 2:1 session at 50.
For convenience, the studio is located at Westmill Community Centre in Hitchin, with the address being John Barker Place, Hitchin SG5 2PG. Maps are available to help you find your way.
