Testimonials
Really appreciate these Masterclasses, they are very well thought out and executed. We are very fortunate to have these opportunities with such gifted professionals.
More please! I love the 1.5 hour duration and have learnt a lot!
Even though I've been going to Pilates classes for a very long time and see Gwendalyn regularly for neck problems, I learnt heaps! Have already started the nightly exercises
It's very good to focus on one topic. This session on neck, shoulders etc was very useful to me. Thanks!
Very informative and practical, and personal. Thank you!
Very informative and applicable for hiking/walking prep. Although I'm reasonably fit I certainly felt it in my thighs for a few days. Well done!
It was lovely to see you and really enjoyed the class and your expertise. You are a well of knowledge.

Sun 23rd September 10-11:30am | Flexibility Have you always wanted to be more flexible? Perhaps you are envious of ballet dancers and their effortless movement? Rachel will draw upon her 18 years of classical ballet experience to teach participants many different stretches to improve flexibility. Some stretches will utilise props to assist in stretching muscles out. You’ll be amazed at the difference that good stretching can make! |
Sun 23rd September 12-1:30pm | The Pilates Challenge Not for the faint hearted, the Pilates Challenge promises to offer 90 minutes of flowing choreography which builds to a satisfyingly difficult crescendo! Participants need to be at a strong Intermediate level and while there will be some advanced exercises, the focus will be more on Pilates endurance. Bring your water bottle and hand towel for this one! |
Sun 21st October 10-11:30am | The Hidden Power of Slings Are the only slings you’ve heard of for broken arms? When certain muscles work in synergy, greater power is developed in certain movements. Anatomists have identified 5 different types of slings and from a Pilates perspective, they are the hidden secret to boost your technique. Learn which muscles groups make up these slings and Rachel will teach many familiar Pilates exercises with sling cues to demonstrate this extra power. |
Sun 25th November 10-11:30am | Standing Pilates Did you know that most of the traditional Pilates repertoire can be performed in standing? We end the year with a fun class, adapting your favourites into graceful routine, challenging strength, balance and co-ordination. |
