A new pilates studio opening in Derry next week will be the first ever in the city to offer the full suite of larger equipment designed by Pilates founder, Joseph Pilates.
Embodied Pilates Studio, which opens on May 2 and will be based at 2 Clarendon Street, will also be creating another first when it launches its innovative new class created specifically for sports people, including golfers, runners and cyclists.
The 'Slings for Sport' classes are currently the only ones of their kind on offer on the island of Ireland, and have been devised by studio owners, Louise Carey from the Waterside in the city, and Laurie Keegan Schneider, who is originally from Dublin.
