Classes at Studio EMBA  

Pilates

Developed by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century, pilates involves a series of controlled movements that target the core muscles, emphasises breath control, precision and proper alignment. We aim to improve strength, flexibility and posture, promoting mind-body connection. We adapt each exercise to individual needs and fitness levels using different small equipment in each class to enhance our practice.

Reformer

Reformer pilates enhances strength, flexibility and overall body conditioning. The class typically offers a mix of controlled movements, emphasising core activation and activating and engaging precise mucle groups.. The reformer adds resistance to challenge and tone, providing a comprehensive and adaptable experience. Super fun, super addictive.

Barre

Barre is a dynamic workout that combines elements of pilates, ballet and strength training. We use a ballet barre for support whilst performing small isometric movements targeting specific muscle groups. The class often incorporates light weights, resistance bands and bodyweight exercises to sculpt the arms, legs, glutes and core. We focus on precision and control, aiming to improve flexibility, posture and overall muscular tone and endurance.

Yoga

Yoga is an ancient practice encompassing physical, mental, and spiritual disciplines. It involves a series of postures combined with breath control and meditation techniques. The practice aims to promote physical strength, flexibility, and balance, as well as mental clarity and inner peace. There are numerous styles of yoga at Emba, ranging from dynamic Vinyasa flows to more gentle and meditative styles such as Hatha and Yin.
