Seated Mobility & Strength

A gentle seated exercise class to help you keep moving, improve mobility and build strength with confidence.

Our Seated Mobility & Strength class is ideal if you would like to exercise but find getting down onto a mat difficult, or simply feel more comfortable exercising from a chair.

During each 45-minute class we will work on mobility, strength, posture and coordination, with exercises for the whole body. We use a variety of movements and small equipment to keep the sessions interesting, while exercises can be adapted to suit different abilities.

The class is primarily chair-based, so you can exercise in a supported seated position. Where appropriate, we may also include optional supported standing exercises.

All equipment is provided.

Who is our seated exercise class for?

The class may be particularly suitable if you:

• find getting down onto, or back up from, the floor difficult
• have reduced mobility or balance
• are returning to exercise after a period of inactivity
• would like a gentler way to improve your strength and movement
• feel more confident exercising from a chair
• simply prefer a supported, lower-impact exercise class

You don’t need any previous Pilates or exercise experience to join.

Improve your mobility, strength and balance

Regular exercise can help us maintain the strength and mobility we need for everyday life. Our seated class works the whole body, helping to keep joints moving and muscles strong, while also working on balance and coordination.

Exercises are gentle and can be adapted to suit your ability, allowing you to work at a level that feels right for you. Whether you want to feel a little stronger, move more freely or simply keep active, the aim is to help you feel more confident in everyday movement.

What do we do in the class?

Each class includes a mixture of gentle mobility and strengthening exercises for the whole body.

We may work on spinal and joint mobility, posture, core strength and upper and lower body strength, coordination and flexibility. We also use small equipment to add variety and different challenges.

Previously called our Chair Pilates class, Seated Mobility & Strength incorporates Pilates-based principles alongside a wider range of gentle mobility, strengthening and functional exercises.

The aim is simple: to help you keep moving, maintain strength and feel more confident in what your body can do.
