FOUNDATION PILATES - MOVE THE RIGHT WAY
Everyone moves in different ways, influenced by the individual day to day lives we lead. This can create tissue stress and overloading in certain areas of the body, in many cases developing the pain and stiffness you may experience on a daily basis.
However with Foundation Pilates, in Battersea, you will work to identify and remove many of the restrictions that inhibit our daily living, creating Movement Health allowing you to feel more supple and energised.
The key step for Foundation Pilates is to learn and understand how your body moves and identify the weak links. Foundation Pilates can be your first step into the amazing world of Pilates while you learn how you move. Or it can be a great transition from injury and pain as you work towards building your core foundation, such an important step in the recovery process. One often missed by many clients as part of their treatment pathway.
Change happens through movement, and movement heals’
– JOSEPH PILATES
Firstly, you will have an assessment so our skilled Pilates Instructors, all with rehabilitation backgrounds, assess how you move building a plan to help develop your weaknesses into strengths and introducing you to the reformer with essential introduction exercises. Generally you will then complete three 1:1 sessions to get you ready to join a suitable class for your level. However it is your choice and you may wish to to continue with 1:1 training, keeping the personalised input into your sessions or joining a bespoke class (maximum 3 per class) and working in a group environment.
Whichever path you choose your body will thank you for starting the path to movement health.
Remember when you are ready you can progress into our Performance Pilates programmes.

TESTIMONIALS
Just to say, thank you both so much for your running technique/run-planning input. I ran Oxford Half yesterday in a pb of 1.35.04 (pb by about 2 minutes, which had been my aspiration for ages) – totally unexpected given my main goal was to get round uninjured.

Amy, my physiotherapist, has been amazing clearly explaining each stage of the treatment & rehabilitation program with patience and a fun and enthusiastic manner. Setting progressive and varied exercises to build strength & stability for my return to competitive racket sports and running.This manner has been instrumental in maintaining motivation throughout the process and it has been extremely rewarding to see the considerable progress made because of this.
ANDY
In terms of rehabilitation offering, I feel I have had access to a 360’ program, as in addition to the physiotherapy my posture, walking and running has been videoed and analysed which has transformed my gait and running technique to minimise further injury.I have also had access to sports massages to maintain flexibility to maximise the results of the rehabilitation and strengthening exercises at home and in their fantastic gym and exercise area all on site.A big thank you to the whole team.
DEREK
For the previous two months I had been hobbling around like Quasimodo’s elder sister. Three months and eight treatments later, reinforced by "Walking Retraining" - to correct my gait and posture, I feel like a new woman. My hip is all but better, my back hasn’t been so good in years and my mojo has returned

The Performance Matrix, an individualised programme, which has targeted my weak areas in order that I can attain new goals: cycling, yoga and 13 hour shifts on my feet!!! My long term goal is to get back skiing which I can now see is a possibility. And the best bit - I no longer have to spend 30 minutes stretching each day to relieve my pain ?

Without having done the Performance Matrix movement screen, I would never have been able to remain injury free while training for and running the London marathon this year. You certainly have to commit to doing the exercises but the results have allowed me to feel that I am in the best shape I could possibly be
