SHELLHARBOUR CITY PILATES (Pilates Progressions and Strengthen and Lengthen with Michelle)
Pilates is a system of exercises focusing on the principles of breath, alignment, balance, precision, flow, and core focus. Originally developed by Jospeh Pilates, this system of exercise works on the principles of the body's innate intelligence, and aims to develop a stronger, longer, leaner and healthier body. Pilates basics is suitable for beginners and anyone needing a foundation level program. Pilates Progressions is aimed at intermediate to advanced participants who wish to challenge themselves further, and Pilates Lengthen and Strengthen focuses more on core, mobility and stretching based exercises.

PILATES FUSION with Kylie
Pilates Fusion combines the key principles and exercises of Pilates with functional movement patterns, body conditioning, somatic principles, and stretching and release work for a full mind body workout. Classes are matwork based and incorporate a range of Pilates based props and tools including bands, balls, weights, blocks, circles, foam rollers and spiky balls.
BARRE CLASSES with Kylie
Barre is a fusion of ballet conditioning exercises, Pilates and Yoga. Integrating both the ballet barre, and mat work, barre is an excellent all over body workout, with a reputation for getting the core, thighs and gluteals toned and firing.

Relaxercise integrates somatic practices, gentle exercises from Pilates and Yoga, as well as breathing, relaxation, stretching and myofascial release techniques into a 60 minute class to leave participants feeling relaxed, yet energised.
BELLY DANCING with Kylie and Ellie
Belly Dance is an ancient and beautiful art form rooted in the Middle East. Movements range from serpentine and sensual artwork through to dynamic and percussive hip work, and it is well known for also being excellent for the core and pelvic floor. Our Beginners and Beyond classes teach basic technique and combinations, as well as introducing students to the different styles of bellydance and music. Our Belly Dance Basics class is a mixed level class which explores technique, musicality, and the nuances of bellydance in more depth, with a greater focus on combinations and choreography.
