🧘‍♀️ “What if I can’t do one of the exercises?”

Don’t worry, Pilates isn’t about doing every move perfectly.

Everyone moves differently. We’ve all got our own history, posture, strength levels and injuries. What works for one person might not feel right for someone else, and that’s completely normal.

Stick to what feels right for your body. Move at your pace. And when you feel ready, add in small challenges, that’s how you build strength, stamina and confidence.

There’s no pressure to “keep up”. In my classes, we focus on moving well, not ticking boxes.

🧍‍♀️ “I suffer with back pain, can I still do Pilates?”

Yes, and in many cases, that’s exactly why people start Pilates.

Pilates focuses on gentle, controlled movement that helps strengthen the muscles around your spine, improve your posture and take pressure off the areas that are working too hard.

It’s not about pushing through pain, it’s about moving in a way that supports your body. That includes building strength in your core, glutes and hips, the parts that often protect your back without you realising.

Every class I teach includes options, so you can move in a way that works for you. You’re never expected to do more than your body is ready for.

Got questions or unsure where to start just message me and I'll try and help.

🍑 Will Pilates help tone and strengthen my glutes and legs?

Short answer: YES.

Longer answer: Absolutely, and here’s why...

Pilates works deep into the muscles you don’t always hit in traditional workouts. That includes the glutes (yep, all three layers!) and the muscles that support your hips, knees and ankles.

We use small, controlled movements, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy. Expect to feel the burn in all the right places.

Stronger glutes =

✔️ Better posture

✔️ Less back pain

✔️ Happier hips

✔️ More support for your knees

✔️ A bit more power in your step (and your squats)

So if you want strength and tone, Pilates has you covered.

Why not try this exercise today and feel your glutes and legs working? If you'd like to join me for more exercises check out www.dawnchambersfitness.com/book-online
