About
Bradley Physio Pilates is a well-established Pilates studio and Rehabilitation Centre located in Rochdale, New Zealand. With a team of experienced physiotherapists and pilates instructors, they offer a wide range of services to help individuals improve their physical well-being and manage pain.
At Bradley Physio Pilates, they provide studio-based classes as well as live-streamed classes for those who prefer to exercise from the comfort of their own homes. These classes are suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels, and are particularly beneficial for individuals managing, suffering, or recovering from back, neck, and joint problems.
Tracy, one of their dedicated pilates instructors, has been teaching classes at the studio for 20 years. She completed a comprehensive training with the Australian Physiotherapy & Pilates Institute (APPI) and has since expanded her knowledge through various courses, including ante and postnatal pilates, exercise ball, balance cushions, standing pilates, weighted balls, and resisted bands.
The studio classes take place in warm and clean studios, while the live-streamed classes allow individuals to participate from their own homes. The instructors guide participants through a series of exercises using small pilates equipment, which can be improvised for those joining from home. The chance of injury is significantly lower with pilates compared to other forms of exercise, making it a safe option for all.
Pilates is scientifically proven to build strength in the core muscles, improve posture, balance, and flexibility. Under the guidance of the pilates-trained therapists at Bradley Physio Pilates, individuals can expect improved core strength, greater postural awareness, increased flexibility, and a better understanding of their body's movement patterns. It is particularly useful for preventing pain or managing long-term joint problems, such as low back pain.
Studio-based classes cost NZD 10 per 50-minute class and are led by experienced pilates instructors. The classes have a maximum of nine participants to ensure personalised attention. Newcomers to pilates are provided with a link to a free introductory video that covers the basics of pilates before joining a class. All necessary equipment is provided, except for a head cushion or pillow.
Attendance is booked for the same class on the same day each week for a designated block of 5–6 weeks.
Live-streamed classes cost NZD 5 per 50-minute class and are led by highly experienced pilates instructors. There is no commitment to attend, and no prior booking is required. To join a live-streamed class, individuals simply need to call the clinic and make an initial payment of NZD 20. A link to a free introductory video is then sent to them for reference.
Whether individuals choose to attend studio-based or live-streamed classes, Bradley Physio Pilates is dedicated to providing a safe, supportive, and effective environment for individuals to improve their flexibility, strengthen their core, reduce joint pain, and prevent injuries. With the expertise of their experienced team, individuals can expect to achieve their fitness and rehabilitation goals while enjoying the many benefits of pilates.
