STRONGER
Stronger is our most advanced class style, combining heavy resistance training with the precision of contemporary Pilates to deliver a challenging, high-performance training experience. Through compound movements, progressive overload and purposeful programming, every class is designed to build functional strength, muscular endurance and cardiovascular fitness while continuing to challenge even our strongest members.
We recommend using a minimum of 5 kg (11lb) dumbbells, however your ideal weight will depend on your individual strength, experience and exercise selection. Due to the advanced nature of this class style, Stronger is not recommended for beginners.
