✨New to Pilates? Here’s what you need to know
Fitness goals can be some of the most rewarding new years habits to begin to improve quality of life. Many people will be starting Pilates for the first time this year, so here is how to get the best start in Pilates.
Define your objectives
🎯Whether you are looking to improve flexibility, strength or simply just try a new form of fitness, setting goals is the first step.
🎯Your objectives can help you find the right classes for your personal goals.
Start on a small scale
🎯Throwing yourself in at the deep end is never a good idea and will lead to burn out, lack of confidence or even injury.
🎯Instead, start with beginner classes to ease yourself into Pilates, familiarising yourself with the movements to build confidence.
Maintain consistency
🎯Keeping consistent is key to reaching your goals and reaping the benefits of Pilates.
🎯Consistency sustains your progress meaning you will always be on an upwards scale to success.
Be patient with yourself
🎯As with starting anything new, Pilates is a learning curve and getting everything right first time is not expected.
🎯Instead, take mistakes in your stride and do not put pressure on yourself to be the best.
