Active Yoga
Live Life Get Active’s yoga is a combination of styles concentrating on flexibility and reducing the risk of injury. Not only is Yoga a fantastic way to stretch and strengthen your body, it also helps to clear your mind of stress so you spend the time focusing on you. Reducing body-wide inflammation, yoga benefits your heart health and can also help you sleep better when practised in the evening. If you’re new to yoga, it’s a good idea to sign up for a class so you can learn good form from our trainers. Chair (or seated) yoga is a great option if your mobility or balance is limited, and make sure to move at your own pace as any yoga pose can be modified so that it’s right for you. We are really pleased to be able to offer its wide-ranging benefits to all our members and encourage everyone to try yoga. Why not give Core Focused Yoga a go?

Pilates
Pilates involves a series of movements focusing on improving core strength, posture, balance and flexibility. Not only are you engaging your body but you are also relying on your mind-muscle connection. Pilates is a great compliment to other forms of exercise. The deep focus on the muscles through stretching and lengthening can reduce the chance of you injuring yourself during other workouts. Every exercise in pilates has a specific purpose in strengthening and toning your body. Get started with Claudia’s Booty Burn Pilates workout.

Tai Chi
Tai Chi is a continual slow-motion, low impact exercise that incorporates deep breathing and brings focus to sensations throughout the body. Because of the relaxed and gentle nature of Tai Chi, it can easily be adapted to all types of people and is suitable for all fitness levels. Throughout the practice, the circular motion of the movements means your muscles, joints and connective tissue remain relaxed. It is perfect to practice in the morning as it will energise you for the day ahead. Not only this, but Tai Chi helps to boost your immune system by quietening the nervous system’s response to stress via its collective effects of exercise, relaxation and meditation. It can also relieve exisiting pain in the body and improve cardiovascular health through deep breathing to lower blood pressure.
