FAQs
How do I get the best results?
It’s all about CONSISTENCY, over perfectionism, and showing up for yourself makes the difference.
Once or twice a week is a great start, but if you practice consistently, you will not only notice a visible change in your body, you will also feel it making a bigger impact in your life than you thought possible.
Is Pilates safe during pregnancy?
Yes, Pilates is safe during pregnancy. Pilates can safely help you build strength and stability throughout your pregnancy. Equipment Pilates is a FANTASTIC way to start or keep healthy during and after your pregnancy. Pilates focuses on your breathing, your pelvic floor, core and back muscles, which are all muscles that need extra love and attention during and after pregnancy. If you are thinking about having a baby, Pilates is so GOOD for setting up your body to be strong 💪
How soon after I’ve given birth can I start Pilates?
We encourage clients to receive clearance from their health practitioner or obstetrician before commencing exercise again. This usually happens at six weeks post birth.
Can I do Pilates with scoliosis?
While Pilates may not cure or fix scoliosis, it will certainly improve posture, elongate the spine, and uniformly develop tissues. As Pilates instructors, we prioritize the center of the body, or spine, and move out towards the periphery. This spine-centered approach to movement makes Pilates an ideal modality for individuals with scoliosis.
How old do you have to be to start Pilates?
At PULSE we see younger clients on a case-by-case basis, always starting with an Initial Consultation or referral. We currently have children as young as 14 attending our studios, with parental supervision.
