Introducing my new staff member for St.Helens Marketa Manhart

Marketa Manhart is a Pilates instructor and Crossfit athlete, training for a competition in Rainhill Trialls (Winter 2016). She is highly motivated and ambitious individual with 8 year experience in practising, with focus on MAT muscle activation technique, core strength, balance and correct breathing technique. She has a solid self determination and a strong passion for health, fitness and well being, and possess a strong ability to motivate other individuals.

Her Pilates background began back home in Czech Republic and most of her Pilates skills come from the influence of my previous tutor, Sabina Kocova, Pilates & Kundalini Yoga instructor and physiotherapist. "I had not been always a fit person, She helped me to discover the hidden athlete inside.My professional scheme concentrates on strong foundation and bringing in more factors and different domains to promote Pilates for both normal life and professional performance as my crossfit training massively influences my teaching style and class structure."

CLINICAL PILATES EQUIPMENT: Joseph Pilates originally intended for all clients to use all the studio equipment. We need to associate our moves with our everyday life and keep our actions functional. So rather than lieing on a Reformer bed for an hour, we have created a diverse multi plane sequence involving the three planes; sagittal, frontal and transverse. By using all the equipment clients will get a more balanced programme and also understand the essence of Joseph Pilates intentions. you will learn to understand your body better and enhance your motor skills. Clients will use the Reformer, Cadillac and small Barrels progressing to large Barrell and Stability chair later. Our next open evening is Tuesday 2nd August at 7pm, 46 Claughton st ( old Photographer studio) Behind Wilkinsons, St.Helens, car parking is behind the studio.

Pilates equipment sessions will be limited to 4 people per session, our next courses starts Weds 5th & Aug 6th August, call or email to book.
