I have been attending Vicki's Pilates classes for a couple of months. I was hoping to improve my flexibility and strengthen my core. I walk away from the class feeling so much better and have noticed that I have started to stand and sit differently. I have a better understanding of my body now, thanks to Vicki's explanations of what we are doing and why. The classes are friendly and cater for all levels of ability, as a beginner I felt instantly comfortable. I highly recommend Glowing Fitness Pilates.
I have been attending Vicki's Pilates classes since she began teaching. I really enjoy her style of teaching as she is very friendly but totally committed to the ethics of this exercise regime. The benefits of Pilates are amazing and help in every day life. Standing, walking, driving the car and gardening are all improved with the increased strength and mobility Pilates provides. I love my classes and the 1:1s give you the opportunity to iron out any specific problems you have and also allows Vicki to adjust any positions that are not quite right. Thoroughly recommend Vicki Cook.
Glowing Fitness Pilates offers 2 pilates disciplines. Each one is suited to different goals — read the breakdown below to see which fits.
Reformer pilates is performed on a specialised piece of equipment using adjustable spring resistance. It targets deeper stabilising muscles than mat-based pilates and is widely used for posture correction, core strength, injury rehabilitation and pre/postnatal training.
Mat pilates uses your bodyweight on a padded mat, often with small props like resistance bands, blocks and pilates balls. It's the most accessible form of pilates — no heavy equipment, lower price points, and easier to continue at home.
