The Modified Pilates programme may be a mixed ability class. It will begin at a low level and will be advanced in stages depending on your fitness level. You agree to work at your own level and with guidance from your instructor. We stop the exercise session because of signs of fatigue or excessive strain. It is important to realise that you may stop when you wish because of feelings of fatigue or any other discomfort.
There exists the possibility of certain dangers when exercising. They include abnormal blood pressure, fainting, irregular, fast or slow heart rhythm, and in rare instances, heart attack, stroke or death. Whilst every care will be taken, it is impossible to predict the bodies exact response to exercise. Every effort will be made to minimise these risks by evaluation of preliminary information relating to your health and fitness and by observations during exerciseing. Emergency equipment and trained personnel are available to deal with unusual situations that may arise.
I understand that with certain conditions a certain degree of undressing may be required during the assessment and the Modified Pilates instructor will explain this to me at the time. I understand the Modified Pilates programme will be specifically designed as a personal training plan and will take into account details given by my health questionnaire and assessment. Therefore, this programme of exercise should only be undertaken when in a Modified Pilates class, or when I have been give specific instructions to exercise on my own.
