In addition to the types of clinical pilates classes held on the floor, we also hold clinical pilates classes with large equipment.
This equipment allows a greater diversity and dynamics of exercises, while facilitating the maintenance of postural alignment and making it possible to perform the exercises safely and with low risk to each person's clinical condition.
Through different degrees of difficulty and various positioning, the huge variety of clinical pilates exercises on equipment are intended to work on muscle strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, postural stability and mobility of the spine, and can act as support, assistance or resistance to movements.
Our Equipment includes:
Reformer: considered the main equipment, it was created by Joseph Pilates while working in a hospital during the 2nd World War to help his patients gain muscular strength. It consists of the combination of a spring system with a mobile base on which exercises can be performed lying down in all positions, sitting, standing, kneeling and crawling.
Reformer with Tower: reformer adaptation to perform the main exercises of the Cadillac/Trapeze Table to train abdominal muscles and mobilize the spine through movable/fixed bars and versatile spring systems and in various positions.
Wunda Chair/Pilates Chair: more compact but very versatile, this equipment consists of a wooden box combined with pedals through an integrated spring system, in which countless exercises can be performed standing up and sitting down, but also lying down, allowing for excellent abdominal work.
Ladder Barrel: created by Joseph Pilates from a beer barrel, this equipment is a combination between a backrest and a round surface and barrel shape, through which you can perform various exercises to mobilize the spine, stretch and flexibility, but also muscle strengthening, especially of the abdominals, including the obliques.
Whether it's to recover and/or prevent injuries or simply to stay active, it is possible to do exercise appropriate to your needs, in a safe, didactic and fun way, and contribute to an increase in motivation for physical activity and an improvement in quality of life and health levels!
Our Clinical Pilates classes with large equipment have two modalities: individual or in groups of 2 people. This way we can give a personalized training to each person.
