What Our Clients Are Saying

I started attending Laura’s pilates classes 2 years ago with the aim of strengthening my legs (especially knees) for long distance hiking. I also wanted to maintain and improve my flexibility. I found classes with Laura and her fellow instructors very enjoyable. It wasn’t long before I was attending twice a week. I personally prefer the reformer machine as it makes me push myself more. My knees don’t bother me anymore and my flexibility has improved.

Laura and her team set up a WhatsApp group in order to keep us fit during lockdown of Covid-19. They sent daily exercises and set 30 day challenges!
Thanks to Laura and her great team for keeping us motivated to stay fit during lockdown.

I have been going to Laura twice a week for 3 years. She is highly profession, completely knowledgeable and extremely good at what she does.

Not only have I noticed profound differences in my body, I have also completely reversed the pain I had been experiencing in my lower back.

In addition to this, Laura has somehow managed to deliver a different workout and class every single time I go. Thank you Laura.

Michelle Moroney

Cliffs of Moher Retreat Centre

I have attended Laura’s Pilates since I was 16 weeks pregnant, in my second trimester. I am now 22 weeks post partum and I am feeling stronger every week. It has really helped with my core in pregnancy, to support the extra weight and now to strengthen and tone everything back up.

Having a personal one on one for me with Laura has been invaluable on the whole journey, as different weeks different niggles or shifts in my body would happen, Laura could personalise our session to work on that. I could really feel the effects, I surfed up until 7 months pregnant, and was back in the water after 6 weeks, I could really feel the strength in my core from the classes. I will keep attending Pilates with Laura now, to help with my posture through breast-feeding and having a young child. It’s my weekly hour to myself, and I wouldn’t spend it doing anything else! Thank you.

Our most commonly asked questions.

What is Pilates?

Pilates was developed by a German man Joseph H. Pilates in the 1920’s and is a full body exercise routine/system that teaches you awareness of how to move and isolate your body. Pilates helps tone and lengthen the muscles which helps with muscle imbalance. Deep muscles known as your ‘core’ and are recruited during Pilates exercises.

Is there a difference between pilates and yoga?

In my opinion both are helpful depending on what you are looking to achieve. Pilates increases stimulus and activity to an area as we strengthen up the nerve pathways while we bring awareness to different areas in the body with movement. We help regain a muscular balance between both sides of the body in regard to length and strength.

I have back troubles, can I do pilates?

Many people that come through the doors here have back trouble. Some can be due to weaknesses in the deep stabilizing core muscles. Pilates is a gentle form of exercise that allows the body to focus on recruiting the core muscles that stabilize and strengthen the back from deep within.

Pilates and Pregnancy?

As the baby grows, the Pelvic Floor is put under increase pressure. Exercises and awareness of how to activate these muscles are important to allow the mother to continue with everyday activities without the fear and stress of any leeks, both in pre- and post pregnancy stages.  Pilates helps strengthen these areas, make you aware of the muscles you are recruiting to ensure protection for your back.
