🌴 Holiday Wildlife Meets Pilates Vibes 🧘‍♀️🐾

While on holiday, we were inspired by some of the most fascinating animals—and it turns out, they’ve got some serious Pilates energy:

🦥 Sloth – slow, controlled movements = core engagement goals
🐍 Snake – spine articulation in Cobra pose? Nailed it.
🐊 Crocodile – strong, grounded, and totally still (hello, plank hold)
🦜 Toucan – balanced, bold, and unbothered. Just like a Tree pose.

Whether you’re flowing like a snake or chilling like a sloth, Pilates helps you move intentionally — with strength, grace, and control.

Book your next class and bring your inner jungle animal to the mat 🌿 Can’t wait to see you all this week!

We hear it all the time:
“I’ll start Pilates once I’m a bit fitter…”
But here’s the truth — Pilates meets you exactly where you are.

Whether you’re brand new to movement or coming back after a break, Pilates is designed to build strength, flexibility, and confidence from the ground up. You don’t need to be strong, bendy, or coordinated to begin — that’s the result of showing up, not the requirement.

Every class at KC Pilates is friendly, supportive, and tailored to your pace. You’ll move, breathe, and feel better in your body — right from day one.

So no, you don’t have to “get ready” to start.
Starting is getting ready.

🤔 Reformer vs. Mat Pilates — What’s the Difference?

Both Reformer and Mat Pilates offer incredible core-strengthening, posture-enhancing, and flexibility-boosting benefits — but they each bring something unique to your workout! 💪✨

🧘‍♀️ Mat Pilates
✔️ Bodyweight-based
✔️ Focuses on control, alignment & breath
✔️ Great for building a strong Pilates foundation
✔️ Can be done anywhere!

🛞 Reformer Pilates
✔️ Uses a specialized machine with springs & pulleys
✔️ Adds resistance & support for deeper muscle activation
✔️ Ideal for building strength, improving mobility, and rehab
✔️ Fun, dynamic, and incredibly effective!

Both are amazing, it just depends on your goals!

✨ If you haven’t heard, we’re opening a brand-new Reformer Pilates studio soon — and we can’t wait to move with you!

🌟 Tight Hamstrings? Try This Stretch with a Pilates Ring! 🌟

If your hamstrings feel tight from sitting, running, or just life in general — this one’s for you!

Grab your Pilates ring and try this simple stretch:

💫 How-to:
1️⃣ Lie on your back, one leg bent( or extended along the floor for a further stretch) one leg lifted
2️⃣ Place the Pilates ring over the sole of your lifted foot
3️⃣ Gently hold the ring and guide your leg toward you
4️⃣ Keep shoulders relaxed and breathe into the stretch

🧘‍♀️ You’ll feel a deep release through the back of the leg without straining your neck or back — Pilates style!

No circle, no problem, use a resistance band or a rolled up towel instead!

You may have noticed… a little change!

We’ve had a small rebrand — moving from Kathryn Crowley Pilates to KC Pilates! ✨

While the name is shorter, our passion for movement, strength, and community is stronger than ever. This new look marks the beginning of some very exciting changes ahead.

Thanks for being part of the journey so far. We can’t wait to show you what’s next!

We took Pilates outside this morning and it couldn’t have been more perfect.

There’s something special about moving your body in the fresh air – it boosts your mood, deepens your breath, and helps you feel more connected to yourself and the world around you. 🌼

Outdoor Pilates is not just good for your body, it’s great for your mind too. We soaked up the sunshine, stretched , strengthened and enjoyed every feel-good moment.

Tonight we used the thera bands to add in a little strength work, especially for our upper bodies. How fab does the hall look with the VE bunting! No, I’ve not shrank, that’s my ‘mini me’ joining in with the warm up. Nice for her to see what we get up to but she was disappointed no back walkovers!

Happy Easter everyone. Have a lovely long bank holiday weekend. Classes and 1:1s resume Tuesday 22nd April. Kathryn x

Foam roller… do you love it or hate it? When we use the foam rollers, I often tell clients that some of the exercises may not feel the nicest when we do them BUT the benefits after class can be greatly felt.

The foam roller is often used as a massage tool but recently in class we used it as a prop to aid our mobilisation work, increasing our range of movement.

Here’s what the lovely Nicola had to say about the foam roller class.

Pilates ….its just a bit of stretching and breathing, isn’t it??!
Hmm not quite! Yes we do stretch, and we do focus on our breathing, learning how to use our breath effectively and where to direct our breath but there’s a lot more to Pilates!
Tonight, we focused on strength and mobility. We flexed, extended, rotated, and moved laterally. We worked hard!! If you’ve still yet to try pilates, where have you been?!
Drop me a message and I’ll get you booked in so you can feel the benefits too!
P.s. it’s not just for women!! Who knew!
