Pilates for beginners in Hucknall
Never tried Pilates before?
That's absolutely fine.
You don't need any previous experience, a certain level of fitness or a perfectly strong core to start. Our Pilates classes are designed to be accessible for all levels, with guidance + options throughout the class so you can work at a level that feels right for you.
Everyone starts somewhere.
You can take your time learning the movements, ask questions when you need to + listen to your body throughout the practice.
What happens in a Pilates class?
You'll be guided through a series of controlled, purposeful movements designed to strengthen + mobilise the body.
You'll work with your own body weight, using small props where appropriate to challenge or support different movements.
Expect a mixture of exercises targeting the core, legs, glutes, arms + whole body, with a focus on control rather than speed.
And don't be fooled by the fact that Pilates is low impact — those small movements can definitely make you feel muscles you didn't know you had!
Do I need to be fit to do Pilates?

Pilates can be adapted to suit different bodies, abilities + experience levels.
You don't need to be particularly strong or flexible before you start. The practice itself can help you develop strength, mobility + confidence over time.
Pilates vs yoga: what's the difference?
Pilates + yoga have plenty of similarities, but they aren't the same practice.
Pilates was developed as a system of physical exercise with a strong focus on core strength, stability, alignment, control + muscular endurance.
Yoga has a much broader history and tradition, with physical postures being one part of a practice that can also include breathwork, meditation + philosophy.
There is plenty of crossover between the two, and many people enjoy practising both.
Pilates vs Barre
Pilates + Barre also have plenty in common.
Both can build strength, improve posture, develop body awareness + use controlled movements.
Barre incorporates exercises inspired by ballet alongside elements of strength training, Pilates + mobility, often using small, precise movements performed to music.
Pilates tends to have a stronger focus on core control, stability + precise movement.
If you enjoy one, you may well enjoy the other too!

The Inspired Studio has everything you need, including mats + small props.
Of course, if you prefer to bring your own mat or equipment, you're very welcome to.
