Pilates is having a bit of a moment. You may have noticed ๐Ÿ˜‰

So I thought it time to reintroduce myself.

Iโ€™m Emma, founder of Engineered Well Pilates, a Classical Pilates studio in Woodborough Yard (next to the Woodborough Garden Centre).

I opened in 2020 and, since then, have been putting residents of the Pewsey Vale and beyond through their Pilates paces. I honour Josephโ€™s original method, using apparatus such as the Mat, Reformer, Tower, Spine Corrector and more!

Looking for a workout that is tailored to your individual needs?

Looking to improve strength, functional movement and mobility?

Looking to feel challenged, grounded and restored?

Looking to laugh, make friends and discover an exercise practice you actually want to do?

Pilates isnโ€™t just for those needing to rehab from injury. Classical Pilates offers a dynamic, full-body workout and its benefits go far beyond the physical.

At Engineered Well Pilates, I offer privates and semi-privates, and group classes plus โ€˜Pay-What-You-Canโ€™ sessions online.

And if you are recovering from or living with an illness or injury, or are navigating an emotionally difficult period in your life, please know youโ€™re not alone. Pilates has always been my road map for getting through; it could be yours, too.

Scroll through the pictures to find out more about what I offer, or drop me a WhatsApp if youโ€™d like to give it a try.

I look forward to hearing from you and welcoming you into the Engineered Well family.

"Never enough"

That's a translation of something Joseph Pilates apparently used to say. A lot.

It's something I love about Pilates - there's always room to do better, to work deeper, to feel a familiar exercise in a completely new way.

For me, one exercise I never get bored of is the roll up. To start off with, it was all about the abs. Then my shoulder connection came into play (although as you can see, it's not necessarily my strongest!). Then I discovered that how well my glutes fire is closely linked to how I position my feet.

And now I'm working on maintaining the lift and length of my roll up.

Because it's not just a matter of sitting up or stretching forward - but retaining an elongated spine throughout every stage of the movement.

Of pulling back as much as you reach forward. Of lifting up as much as you round over. Of front and back working together in complete balance.

So yes, these roll ups aren't without fault, but today they're more lengthened than they were the other day (which was today's intention). So box ticked, and that's enough for me.

AM or PM?

When it comes to exercise, what time of day do you prefer to get your body moving?

Hit the reformer before work?

Or after?

Or like the idea of breaking off at lunchtime for an at-home Zoom mat class?

I'm potentially looking to add a couple of new time slots to the schedule for group training and I want to know which times would fit in with your lives better.

Let me know in the comments below (ideally let me know days and preferred times) so I can put on the sessions that make it easy to keep your body moving.

Share this post with anyone who might benefit from adding Pilates to their life!

1,000 miles.

That's how far Engineered Well Pilates regular David Walsh will be cycling over the next nine days in aid of The Prince's Trust.

Yes, you read that right. In just nine days, David will be cycling from Lands End to John O'Groats, camping along the way.

Impressive stuff.

Equally impressive is David's ยฃ5,000 fundraising target. David is raising money for The Prince's Trust, a charity that works hard to create brighter futures for young people aged 11 to 30, empowering them to get in to jobs, education and training.

So please spare any change you have to support your fellow Pilates team member David with this incredible physical challenge and help him hit his fundraising target.

STOMACH MASSAGE

Aka the exercise that never fails to show me progressions in my own personal Pilates journey.

When I first started, I felt it painfully in my hip flexors.

Then I went through a phase of not really seeing its point.

Now, it's the magic key to stretching out my lower back, challenging my heel to seat connection and overcoming an ongoing hip impingement.

The first picture is me working on getting as much "lift" out of my lower back as I possibly can - and man am I feeling a stretch through my back and hips here. Just look at that face ๐Ÿ˜

The second picture is the "dumped" position my body prefers to live in. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

The final clip - proof that even Pilates instructors play the sticky mat tango of working out how far towards the shoulder blocks you can put the pad before your teacher picks up on it and gets you to bring it forward ๐Ÿ˜…

We're all human. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Shut. The. Front. Door. ๐Ÿ–

Thanks to all your support Engineered Well Pilates has made it through to the Awards 2021 Finals! ๐Ÿฅณ

I am literally beside myself with excitement and gratitude ๐Ÿ™

For a small newly-started business like me, this really does mean a huge amount. Particularly this year.

So now I have one more favour to ask...

Winners for each category will be selected by public vote.

So if you've ever enjoyed one of my classes - either in studio or online; if I've ever made you laugh, lifted your mood or helped you feel your abs. Or if Otto ๐Ÿถ has ever made you smile with a surprise cameo...

PLEASE VOTE FOR ME
