What is PEC?
Our physio led exercises classes combine the benefits of mat and machine Pilates with gym-based equipment to provide optimal outcomes for all rehabilitation and fitness goals.
We offer 1:1 or small class options, supervised by physiotherapists who will correct technique and ensure your exercises are progressed appropriately so you’re challenged in a safe way.
