Pilatesflows - health insurance recognised classes

Pilatesflows is a movement method developed by Pascale Blunier that combines Pilates with principles from physiotherapy, osteopathy and recent studies on fascia. No machinery is needed to practice it, just roll out a mat and you're done. Fundamental is the precision of the movement always guided by the correct activation of the Powerhouse (come to the free trial course to understand what it is)...

Intense and dynamic

This is a Pilatesflows class that combines strength and precision with a more intense sequence and more complex movements. The class offers the opportunity to consistently perform high-quality movements that require better body control, greater strength and good stability. The objectives are to strengthen the core muscles, promote flexibility and leave you feeling revitalised and grounded by the end of the class, as well as having rebalanced your whole body. WHO IS IT FOR? The class is designed for those who already have a good understanding of their own bodies, for those who want to push themselves a little harder during classes, and for those who enjoy regular, small challenges. The class is also particularly well-suited to athletes, as it helps to correct imbalances, prepare the body for physical activity and apply what has been learnt to one’s own sport.

Senior - over 65

This is a complete Pilatesflows session, set at a gentle pace to help you tune into your body and perform the movements correctly. The class is led in a very calm manner, allowing you to work without overexerting yourself and to execute the movements correctly, which helps to restore the body’s balance. The aim is to work whilst maintaining your current physical abilities and, where possible, improving them. We’ll focus on balance and strength, without neglecting mobility and breathing. Everyone is welcome just as they are, whether they have aches and pains or not. I take everyone’s health into account and each exercise is adapted to the participant’s needs, offering variations where required. FOR WHOM? For people who need to move slowly, who do not want to strain their bodies but still wish to feel the benefits of the practice. Generally for those aged 65 and over (with no upper age limit), but it ultimately depends on how each person feels.

Camomilla Flow - Mobility and Pilatesflows

A very gentle class, designed to help you move your body with kindness and gentleness. The focus is not so much on strength, but rather on space. It’s about creating space within the body. A class that blends various forms of movement (drawing inspiration from yoga, mobility exercises and Pilates flows) but with the aim of simply looking after your body, just as it is. Through gentle movements and breathwork, tension is released and space is created. The class always ends with a moment of relaxation. WHO IS IT FOR? For those who perhaps aren’t so keen on exercise and want something even more peaceful – a moment to relax. For those who suffer from various aches and pains and therefore want an even gentler approach to movement. For those who are no longer so young. For those who are expecting a baby.

Postnatal

According to the Pilatesflows method, this course is suitable for postnatal rehabilitation, specifically for strengthening the pelvic floor. The course consists of a package of 10 sessions, after which, if you wish, you can continue with another Pilatesflows course. Over these 10 weeks, you’ll be able to carve out some time for yourself to breathe, rediscover your body after the immense effort it has undergone (and is still undergoing), and give it some well-deserved attention – strengthening it, relaxing it and restoring a new balance… all in harmony. The course aims to strengthen and relax the pelvic floor, restore balance throughout the body, strengthen the deep muscles and allow you to enjoy a moment of wellbeing for yourself. The classes are held in person; you can choose whether to attend with or without your baby.

Meditative Pilatesflows

An early morning workout to start the day by carving out some time for yourself. Each class is built around a theme for reflection, which is then paired with a sequence of exercises to reinforce the message and work on it with the body. The body listens and absorbs everything we experience, and with this approach, we make it easier for the body to transform, let go, feel our strength, and take up our space. Primrose Flow combines movement and reflection, based on Pilates flows, but also incorporating elements of meditation, dance, yoga, and more. For those following the course from home, all you need is the space for your mat.
