Community Session (Donation Based) Pilates for All

About

Join us for a Deeside Wellbeing Collective community session which alternates practitioners from month to month. A donation based class/workshop, free or just pay what you can. September’s community offering is 'Pilates for All' hosted by Heather Scott (Physiotherapy & Pilates). A mixed ability pilates class led by a physiotherapist and suitable for all levels of experience and abilities. We will spend a short time re-capping the key principles of pilates and why we practice pilates before we commence a gentle but challenging class. We will aim to target the key core stabilising muscles of the body including the deep abdominals, glutes, pelvic floor and upper body postural stabilisers. We will discuss the role of the breath in pilates and function of our core in everyday life. A great opportunity to get a taste of pilates and get an insight to the benefits that could transfer to your everyday movement and function. Finishing with a short relaxation to recover and re-energise before going on with the rest of your day. Any questions can be sent to Heather at info@physiotherapyandpilates.co.uk. This is a donation-based session held in a warm and welcoming community space. Just bring yourself, wear something comfy, and come as you are. All equipment is provided by the studio but please bring your own mat if you prefer. The workshop takes place at Deeside Wellbeing Collective studio, 11 Scott Skinner Square, Banchory. Our monthly adult donation based classes/workshops in 2025 have been made possible by the award of grant funding from the Aberdeenshire Communities Mental Health & Wellbeing Fund Round 4.
