STARTING PILATES
At tfallon.com we strongly recommend you participate in an introductory private class, before joining a group class. This will give you the fundamental skills needed to perform the series of Pilate’s exercises. You will be one on one with your instructor. She/He will focus on the principals of core engagement and shoulder stabilization along with your personal goals.
PRIVATE ONE TO ONE
This 1 hour/45min class works on a one to one basis. The benefit of a private class is YOU gain all the RESULTS YOU WANT. The instructor will design a balanced programme for YOUR body. This will involve both mat and equipment based exercises.

TYPES OF PILATES at TFALLON.COM
• Matwork
This is Pilates exercises performed on a mat. We cater for one to one private classes as well as group classes. See Pilates timetable for times, days & costs below.
• Reformer ( Practised by Madonna, Jennifer Aniston & Gwyneth Pathrow )
The Pilates Reformer is a machine, using springs and straps to add resistance to all exercises. This increases the impact of the exercise and creates a more intense workout.
The Pilates Reformer is especially helpful for first-time Pilates users because the machine supports your movements and body weight throughout while the springs create challenge allowing you to reap the benefits of a all over toned body. Group courses of two people and individual sessions are available at tfallon.com.
• Pre /Post natal Pilates
During this exciting time a regular supervised exercise programme is hugely beneficial to the new mum to be. There are constant changes happening through-out your body during each trimester. We focus on teaching you how to exercise safely, improve posture and breathing during your pregnancy.
• Mens core conditioning
At tfallon.com we also run Men only Pilates classes. This allows us to create a workout specific to the needs of the male anatomy. Many footballers & rugby players attend these courses. See timetable below for class dates & times
