Get ready to float and flex as London’s first Pooltop Pilates class rolls into the city.
Pilates, one of the UK’s most popular wellness exercises, is set to receive an exciting new twist this September with the launch of dedicated rooftop pool classes.
Hosted at New Acres in Wandsworth, these exclusive sessions will challenge attendees’ balance and coordination under the guidance of renowned Pilates instructor Catherine Louise Manna of CLM Pilates.
Combining core engagement with low-impact resistance training, the classes will use various props such as balls and bands.
The unique setting on a premium Air Mat, floating in New Acres’ pristine 25m heated swimming pool, adds a fun and complex element to the workout.
Designed for all ages and skill levels, these classes aim to boost strength, flexibility, and overall mental well-being. The sessions will feature energizing music and the uplifting atmosphere synonymous with CLM Pilates.
Catherine Louise Manna said, “If you’re ready to take your Pilates practice to the next level, why not add the extra challenge of balancing on a paddleboard?
“This unique twist intensifies core engagement, stability, and focus, making your workout even more effective. I look forward to seeing everyone for a fun-filled morning together.”
