Pilates Classes
We offer face-to-face classes in the church halls as well as online classes (see timetable above).
We can take bookings from our existing clients, past attendees and new people who want to start pilates for the first time.
To join, please send an email to info@klpc.co.uk, we will send you a health questionnaire by email, with a follow up telephone chat to discuss why you want to start Pilates, if you have any health issues and about your current level of exercise fitness. From this we can find the class that seems most suitable for you. We have daytime and evening classes at all levels and abilities.
Face-to-face classes
These take place in the Parish Rooms, St Pauls Church on Chipperfield common (opposite the Two Brewers pub) and in the hall, first floor of the Baptist Church in The Nap, Kings Langley, WD4 8ES.
You will need to bring all your own equipment with you – since Covid, there is no shared equipment.
It is essential that you have your own exercise mat.
Other optional equipment that might be used, such as elastic resistance bands or headpads or weights can be purchased from the clinic but your instructor will let you know when you need them.
Online classes
We are using Zoom which you can join using your computer, tablet, I-pad or smartphone providing it has Internet access. We will send you the invitation email with a link, which on the day, you click and follow the instructions to join your class at the allotted time. The instructor will welcome you as you come online and after a brief chat the class commences. If you have your video camera on, it is possible to offer some feedback on your posture and movements. Remember, if we can see you, then everyone in the class can also see you in your home too. It is your choice whether to have the video camera turned on or off. If the microphone is on, then please do not have it too high because it can cause feedback noise.
Fees
Face-to-face classes - 6 weeks = £72
Online or Zoom classes = £60
1:1 or 1:2 Pilates classes with an instructor takes place at the clinic and are £60. These are ideal if you are new to Pilates or have an underlying health issue with concerns prior to starting or doing the course of Pilates.
Payment can be via bank transfer or cheque. Details will be sent to you when you book.
Zoom / online top tips for camera work before you start :
1. Select a good size space so that you can stand and wave your arms about and lie on the floor swinging your legs around without breaking furniture, china, lamps etc.
2. Select two camera spots – one waist high for the standing bits of the warm up and the second on the floor, preferably sideways on so that we could see your spine shape when you are on your hands and knees or lying flat on your back.
3. Stand facing a bright light source, i.e. windows. Otherwise with the bright light behind you, you appear as a ghostly silhouette only.
4. You may need to adjust your computer settings to allow the camera/microphone to be “enabled” or “accessed” before class.
5. When adjusting your speakers and microphone so that you can hear us, please do not put them on the maximum due to feedback noises.
6. You can only enter the meeting when the instructor starts, so don’t arrive too early because it will tell you that the meeting hasn’t started yet. A few minutes ahead of schedule should be fine – we allow a 5-10 minute gap between classes so that everyone can “arrive”. Finally If you need to buy any equipment, e.g. overballs, elastic bands or headpads, then contact the clinic.

Pilates Therapy
‘Pilates. Give it a try! Excellent tuition from an experienced and well qualified teacher using a carefully planned programme for each session. Adapting this programme to zoom classes under lockdown has been very successful. Love the classes’
Ann D from Hemel Hempstead
Pilates Therapy is a mind-body conditioning exercise programme designed to promote core control, improve body awareness, posture, flexibility and functional ability.
Whilst many people chose to take up Pilates Therapy due to a specific problem e.g. low back or neck pain or general stiffness, it is very beneficial to help maintain flexibility and joint movements. It can improve our ability to move, to be more active or just to promote general well-being and good health.
Classes : may last up to one hour and include a warm-up (often standing), mat work exercises (e.g. lying down on tummy, side or front, sometimes sitting or on hands & knees) ending with a cool down and stretches for flexibility. Additional items of equipment might be included e.g. pilates overball, elastic resistance bands and rollers, each one added to enhance an aspect of Pilates Therapy.
Different levels of classes reflect the degree of core control and body awareness required to perform the exercises to gain maximum benefit.
Whilst anyone can sign up for a beginners course – not just our patients, it is recommended that a 1:1 session be undertaken with 1 of the physiotherapist instructors prior to starting a course, especially if you have a particular physical problem e.g. a knee or hip joint replacement, longstanding back or neck pains or you are concerned that you have not exercised for a long time. We also recommend a 1:1 session if you are joining a class that has been running for a few terms.
1:1 sessions are held at the physiotherapy clinic, last approx 45-60 minutes and you will be assessed for suitability and be taught a few of the beginners exercises.
Courses : A Pilates Therapy term is usually 12 weeks split into two 6 week half terms (running with the school term times).
Costs : A 12 week term costs £144 (New beginners may sign up for an initial 6 week half term.
Venue :
Parish Rooms, St Pauls Church, Chipperfield. WD4 9BS
Kings Langley: The Baptist Church, The Nap, WD4 8ET
