Pilates

Pilates is a whole body and mind concept developed by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century. It has has since developed from its early conception to have both incredible fitness and clinical properties, which is why here at Waves we are so passionate about it as a mind-body health platform. We offer group-, private- and semi-private sessions.

In your 55min private session you will have a tailored programme that will target your goals and specifications.

These medical intake & sessions under Pilates are limited at the moment, due to a limited capacity of our instructors. Please get in contact with us to discuss your needs and desires.

As our physiotherapists are frequently fully booked, we are limiting the amount of medical privates that we are taking on at the moment. To start your Pilates privates journey, please use the link below to fill out the request form.

We have a large team of instructors to best accommodate everyone’s preferences and questions. The cost of private sessions depends on the instructor you end up with and is as follows:

L. 1: €65 / €600 (< 1-2 years of experience without a medical degree) – Maria

Duo Sessions (2:1)

Daily

Our duo sessions are for those who would like some more personalised attention with a friend or family member. These sessions are also ideally combined with group Pilates or other exercise sessions.

03. Semi-Privates

Empowerment is important to us at Waves and a big step in this is enhancing your independence and awareness of your body, your mind and its integration with movement. This is why we offer Semi-privates sessions in which we have groups of a max. of 3 people with each their own individual programme and goals. The perfect stepping stone between individual and group sessions. This limited group size allows the instructor to focus more intensely on the individual needs and goals of each participant.

Accessible to both beginners and advanced practitioners, the semi-privates provide a structured environment in which each participant can benefit from customised instruction while at the same time can enjoy the social dynamics of the group.

The advantage of semi-privates lies in the ability to learn to practice more independently than in your individual session. As a result, you develop a better understanding of the exercises and develop more accurate and natural sense your body. You become more aware of the nuances while performing the exercises, and then translate this into real life – the world outside.

Pricing

All these sessions are currently given by our wonderful instructor Brooklyn Harley!

€42 per session (single)
€40 per session (10-pack)
