Many companies now recognise the health benefits that can be gained through providing fitness training for their employees.
People who exercise regularly significantly reduce their risk of many conditions including; Coronary Heart Disease, Diabetes,
Obeisity , High Blood Pressure and Osteoporosis.
Practicing Pilates regularly can increase strength, improve flexibility, relieve stress and develop a strong healthy posture.
Pilates is ideal for the workplace because it can be practiced by almost anyone. And because Pilates focusses on posture and developing
the deep abdominal muscles, it is perfect training for anyone who has to sit at a desk all day.
But posture is not just important when sitting, indeed people who spend long periods on their feet are at risk of developing
a variety of back problems, many of which can be aleviated with correct posture.
Pilates doesn't require any special equipment and can be done almost anywhere, space permitting. Of course if your company has a fitness studio then that is wonderful, but a meeting room where furniture can be moved easily will suffice.
Improved fitness doesn't happen overnight and for this reason corporate Pilates sessions are booked in blocks of 10. Charges will depend on the size of the class and the location of the company (call 0131 621 0649 for an estimate).
Some companies find that early morning Pilates is most convenient for their employees, whilst others opt for lunchtime or after work classes. PilatesPeople offer classes from 7.30 am until 8.00 pm (duration 1 hour) and we do our best to arrange a time that suits you.
