If you are in any doubt about which level would be appropriate for you, particularly if you have a medical condition, then contact Kings Langley Physiotherapy Clinic (tel 01923 261974) and we will be happy to advise you.

Introduction
A six week course designed to give you a feel for the core range of pilates principles and exercises. This is essential for almost everyone but especially if you have existing symptoms or a specific medical condition as this course teaches the correct recruitment of the core muscles.
Beginners
A progression on with new exercises introduced to "challenge" the core stability muscles. People with medical problems such as low back pain may stay at this level for several terms.
Intermediate
For people who have done 6 months or so of pilates with us. A lot of people choose to stay at this level especially if you are recovering from an injury or prefer a gentler form of exercise and postural awareness.
Advanced
For people who have done at least a year of pilates.

Fitness
Suitable for fit, strong people carrying NO injury or problems and for those who have been practicing Pilates Therapy (with the clinic) for a long time.

All the above are matwork classes with the basic warm-up carried out standing, then exercises progress to lying on the floor on either side, stomach or front, also on hands and knees.

One to one sessions are also available.

Classes are held at rooms in Blackwell's Café on Chipperfield Common. (WD4 9BS)
