Frequently Asked Questions
Are there different types of Pilates classes?
There are various types of Pilates classes. Mat Pilates is performed on the floor using just a mat, while equipment-based Pilates utilises specialised machines like the reformer. Our classes incorporate a blend of both to give you variety.
Who is Pilates suitable for?
Pilates is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels, from beginners to athletes. It can be tailored to meet your individual needs and goals, whether you are looking to improve your posture, recover from an injury, or simply get in shape.
How is reformer Pilates different from mat Pilates?
Reformer Pilates uses a machine called a reformer to provide resistance and support during exercises, while mat Pilates uses your own body weight for resistance.
How long are Pilates classes at Hatt’s?
All our Pilates classes are 50 minutes long.
When can I attend Pilates classes at Hatt’s
We offer Pilates classes on a fixed or flexible basis, each with different options (class membership only).
Fixed classes include:
- Guaranteed classes same day and time each week
- Options for a make up class if you are unable to make your usual class
Flexible classes include:
- Five classes per month to book at a time that suits your schedule
- Option to book classes up to 4 weeks ahead
Can I do Pilates classes online?
Yes! One of the benefits we are proud to offer is our live classes, available each week via Zoom. You’ll also have access to a diverse library of pre-recorded Pilates videos so you can do sessions from any location, anytime.
What should I wear to a Pilates class?
We recommend wearing comfortable, form-fitting workout attire that will not restrict your movements during the exercises. This could include leggings, shorts, or athletic bottoms paired with a breathable top.
Hydration is also important, so be sure to bring a water bottle to stay hydrated during your session. You may also want to bring a towel to wipe away any sweat.
How often should I attend Pilates classes?
It is recommended to attend Pilates classes at least 2-3 times per week to see optimal results. Consistency is key in order to improve core strength, flexibility, and overall fitness levels. Combining in -person classes with the live Zoom or pre-recorded classes offers flexibility to fit into your lifestyle – it’s all about finding a balance that works for you and your lifestyle.
Is Pilates a good workout for weight loss?
While Pilates may not be as intense or calorie-burning as more intensive forms of exercise, it can still be an effective method for weight loss.
Pilates focuses on strengthening and toning your muscles, improving your posture, and increasing your flexibility. By building lean muscle mass, you can boost your metabolism and burn more calories throughout the day, thus aiding your weight loss goals.
