What to expect
Equipment & what to bring
At Avalon Pilates Studio, we offer only the best quality Pilates equipment to ensure you benefit the most from your sessions. The only equipment you need to bring with you is a towel to use as a hygiene precaution, a water bottle to keep you hydrated, and non-slip Pilates socks - we look after the rest! If you need a pair of men's or women's Pilates socks, then we have a selection available to purchase in the studio.
What to wear
There are a few elements to consider when choosing your Pilates workout clothing. Firstly, ensure you can stretch and move fully in your Pilates workout clothes. It's also important that your instructors can see the alignment of your body to ensure you're getting the technique right, so it's best to avoid overly baggy clothing. Whilst there's no hard and fast rule, a suggestion for ladies is stretchy leggings (avoid those short running shorts) and men can wear a loose pant (short or long depending on personal preference). A comfortable but fitting top is recommended for everyone. Training shoes are not required as Pilates is usually completed either barefoot or with non-slip Pilates socks. It's also a good idea to remove any dangly jewellery as they can get in the way of your workout.
Your fitness level
If you're new to Pilates, you might be nervous about your fitness level before your first class, however, you shouldn't be! At Avalon Pilates Studio, our priority is to make you feel as comfortable as possible, whilst getting the best workout possible. Regardless of your fitness level, age or prior experience, we have a class to suit you. Even during classes, we are highly experienced to adapt classes for your individual needs and knowledge of Pilates. And remember, your fellow classmates were beginners once too! If you are unsure which class is right for you, be sure to contact us.
