 MEDICAL NOTES / IMPORTANT:

While I have first aid and insurance, if you have:

 osteoporosis,
a slipped disc or

major neck injury,
you will need to sign a waiver.

While these classes are gentle,  they are not designed for people

at these stages of life and the class is a general group class.


If you are currently pregnant, you are welcome to attend if
you have done Pilates before. If you have not
done any exercise in the past, please call me to discuss your atttendance.

​

If you have CFS/long covid but no other serious medical conditions,

this class should be fine for you.

I have mild long covid myself and use these classes to manage my condition.

Yours may be different but you will be in a safe space.

Please bring with you anything you require to stay safe.

If you require a chair, please let me know a few days prior,

so I can arrange this for you

​

If you are unsure about an injury/ previous injury,

please contact me via the flyer number to discuss.

Failure to declare a medical condition of any kind that

may affect your safety in attending class,

will be seen as a serious breach of trust and you will be barred from attending.
