Group Pilates classes in Blackheath
/ Church of the Ascension, London SE10 8AW
Pilates has been in my life for nearly 20 years, and I could only wish to have discovered it sooner!
With over 10 years of experience in teaching Pilates, my classes are informed by continuous research, characterised by a sense of flow, and infused with breathing and mindfulness practice... so you get to "work in" and not just out.
I share this method with passion and compassion, always caring to create an experience that is unique to you as an individual.
I look forward to meeting you soon!
Join us on the mat to experience all the benefits of Pilates, the joy of moving your body, and a sense of community!
Whether you have just started or are experienced at Pilates, my classes are open to all levels and abilities.
Places are limited to a small group of participants to ensure individual attention.
Chiara’s classes are a wholesome treat for body, mind, spirit and soul.
You will be nicely challenged to build strength and be helped to increase your mobility and flexibility to maintain joint health and increase your range of motion.
I love her mindful approach and the steady pace of her classes helps to build and strengthen your body-mind connection. She works with calm and peace and with great respect for the individual.

ENERGISING PILATES
An energising morning session designed to wake up the body and get ready for the day ahead!
In this slightly faster-pace class we focuses on core strength, flexibility, and balance, helping you start your day feeling revitalised. All exercises will be layered so you can move at the level and pace that feels most appropriate, from basic to more invigorating exercises that will leave you refreshed and ready to take on the day ahead. Embrace the morning energy and discover the power of Pilates!
Thursdays 6.30-7.30pm
RESTORATIVE PILATES
An evening restorative session designed to help you unfold the body and unwind the mind.
In this slightly slower-pace class we are guided by the breath to encourage relaxation while building strength and stability. This calming session focuses on gentle yet effective movements, promoting whole body awareness in a mindful way. Suitable to all levels, including postnatal women, we like to end this class with a guided relaxation, to help you transition into the evening with calmness and ease.
