When and how Tara teaches

Tara's classes are taught mostly at midday on weekends, with starts between 2pm and 4pm. Most classes run 50 minutes, which gives enough time to work through a sequence without rushing.

The classes are largely reformer Pilates, with some mat Pilates and small apparatus work included. Several are open to all levels, and others ask for real experience on the apparatus.

What the classes focus on

Reformer Fundamentals gives close attention to the basic movement patterns on the apparatus. Matwork and Small Apparatus works on core strength, flexibility and range of motion. The intermediate and advanced reformer class challenges range, strength, endurance and rhythm.

Across Tara's classes, the focus is on body awareness: how the pelvis, core and legs move together, both on the apparatus and in everyday life.
