New Chair Pilates Class for Individuals with Sight Loss Begins in Chacewater Village Hall

To make fitness more inclusive and accessible, a new chair Pilates class specifically designed for individuals with sight loss has commenced in Chacewater Village Hall. The sessions, led by Shelley from Empower Pilates, are scheduled every Wednesday at 10:45 am, with each session lasting 30 minutes.

This innovative class focuses on gentle movements aimed at providing relief for hips, backs, and shoulders, among other areas. A key feature of this program is Shelley’s approach to teaching. She describes each movement in detail, allowing participants with sight loss to fully engage and benefit from the class.

The initiative represents a significant step in making fitness activities more inclusive, particularly for those with sight loss who often face barriers in accessing traditional exercise classes. By adapting the class structure and teaching methods, Shelley ensures that all participants can enjoy the benefits of Pilates in a supportive and accommodating environment.

Those interested in joining the class or seeking more information can contact Shelley directly at 07977 266268 or via email at shelley@empowerpilates.org. This class offers a unique opportunity for individuals with sight loss to participate in a fitness activity tailored to their needs, promoting both physical health and social inclusion.
