Reset & Sleep Class
Pilates Movement & Stillness with Amanda
Tuesdays 6pm - 7pm
Modern life can keep us stuck in a constant state of “fight or flight;” exhausted yet unable to fully relax. Stress, hormonal changes, busy schedules and constant stimulation can keep the nervous system in a heightened state of alertness making it difficult to unwind. This gentle Pilates class uses mindful movement and stillness practices to support the body’s natural rest-and-digest response helping you transition from doing to being in order to aid more peaceful sleep.
A dedicated space to slow down, switch off and prepare both body and mind for deep, restful sleep.
Ideal for anyone experiencing stress, poor sleep, fatigue, overwhelm or simply needing to slow down. The class offers a sanctuary from the demands of everyday life. You will leave feeling calmer, lighter, more grounded; with practical tools to support relaxation and better sleep beyond the studio. Join us for a relaxing tea post class.
