Bring a sweat towel with you, trainers with good grips on the soles and a bottle of water to stay hydrated.

Pilates Breathing Techniques
One of the key elements of our Walsall Pilates class is breathing control.
Sure, we all know how to breathe, but learning how to breathe correctly will make a huge difference to your performance during the class.
Pilates founder, Joseph Pilates said that learning to breathe properly is vital to getting the best from your Pilates session. He said to imagine the lungs as a bellows and use them to 'circulate air powerfully around the body'.
