About
The Pilates for Osteoporosis programme, crafted by physiotherapist and Pilates instructor Anna Maria, spans a transformative 6-week journey. Emphasizing safety and effectiveness, the sessions progressively build on foundational movements, introducing core exercises without traditional spine-stressing curl-ups. As weeks unfold, participants encounter increasingly challenging routines, with flexibility to opt for comfort. Encouraging repetition up to three times weekly alongside other exercises, Anna Maria underscores the programme's role in enhancing strength, stability, and alignment. Through thoughtful guidance and a personalised touch, this programme not only strengthens bones and muscles but aims to foster confidence and well-being, creating a path to a more resilient and empowered self. The class schedule for home preparation is as follows: Class 1 - Standing work with leg focus Class 2 - Mat class with an introduction to leg strengthening on the mat Class 3 - Low impact class with a focus on balance training and posture Class 4 - Mat class - core focus Class 5 - Standing mat class - core and posterior chain focus Class 6 - Full body focus
