Luckily, there’s a whole range of options available in and around our wonderful Wembley Park apartments to help you to do just that. The area is well kitted out with great gyms and exercise excellent classes - but here we’re focusing on the core strength and conditioning that can come from the full-body workout that is Pilates. 

This guide to the best Pilates in Wembley Park and West London will get you excited about the opportunities the neighbourhood offers.

What is Pilates?

 

Pilates is named after Joseph Pilates, a German-born physical trainer who developed the method after moving to New York in the early twentieth century. It’s a style of exercise that aims to improve practitioners’ overall wellbeing by building core strength and nurturing the connection between the mind and the body. 

Its low-impact nature and focus on precise control make it very popular among dancers and athletes. But it’s recommended for amateurs and absolute newbies too, with many beginners’ classes available, and comes with a long list of health benefits including better posture, improved mobility and balance and looser and more toned muscles.
