Mat Work - What is it?
Pilates mat work requires participants
to hold strength and flexibility positions
using body weight, super concentration and
breathing techniques to give the body an
all over workout. It is particularly useful
for increasing core abdominal and back strength.
Manuka Pilates
Studio
Centrally located in Franklin Street Manuka,
above Millers, this luxurious private studio
is a perfect location for private lessons
and small group classes. With natural light
pouring in from three sides the studio also
has a picturesque view overlooking the bustling
village that is Franklin street. A joy to
work out in.

More about Pilates with Fun & Fitness
Claire, says Pilates has a number of big
positives, particularly for office workers.
"Pilates has taken the fitness world
by storm, combining both strength and mobility.
People seeking a non-intimidating fitness
activity, with a scientific structure and
no real equipment needs, are finding that
Pilates is the answer. What's more they
are achieving important results from the
program including core strength and stability,
stress reduction and all in a safe and controlled
environment.
Postural correction for office workers is
a big need and Pilates provides one of the
best approaches for meeting that need."
Claire, who is a partner and personal trainer
in Fun & Fitness Personal Trainers,
decided that Pilates was the way to go after
spending so much time with individual personal
training clients correcting their posture.
"Many people have limited body awareness
and lack the ability to turn on the right
muscles during exercise. They tend to rely
on the larger muscles that are already strong
and ignore the weaker/deeper muscles such
as the transversus abdominus.
Pilates teaches you to train your local
muscles before the larger muscles, thus
adding intensity with the strength work.
Pilates allows us to individually address
these issues in the cost affective, fun,
motivating environment of group fitness
classes.

Can Pilates help
you?
That probably depends on how you go about
giving it a try!
Pilates is best experienced as an interactive
session, with highly skilled and qualified
instructors who have knowledge of your body
and it’s specific needs. Compared to the
Pilates you may experience at a crowded,
ungraded gym class or via a DVD or book,
the Pilates “Studio” experience is a new
world, which will deliver you far better
individual outcomes.
Pilates Manuka have graded mat work classes
from beginners up to level 6, and limit
their class numbers to an average of 8-10
participants per class. This allows for
greater instructor interaction and specific
attention to your ability level.
Pilates Manuka have otherbeginner’s Pilates
mat work courses starting soon.
Special 6 week beginners mat
work courses are
