GILLY GREEN has been a fitness consultant for 25 years and has taught Pilates in the South Devon area for the past 12 years.


Her company G.H. Fitness runs courses for various abilities from beginner to advanced; classes for people with bad backs and ‘Power Pilates’ for people who want a stronger, more strenuous workout.


They are now launching a new Pilates concept; Sports Specific Pilates which is for fit or very active


people who want to maintain their bodies for more vigorous pursuits.


Particularly for persons who have a passion for one particular activity (runners,


cricketers, tennis players, golfers, horse riders); who need specific strengthening and stretching to enhance performance and prevent injuries.


Gilly Green says: ‘All Pilates sessions will


strengthen core muscles, enchance movement and maintain posture and shape but with the volume of people attending our courses we are now able to diversify our Pilates programmes to specifically work on different groups of people who have certain issues.


‘So whether you are a runner with dodgy hips, a


rower with back pain, a cyclist with bad knees, or simply an inactive person wishing to start an exercise programme we will have a Pilates course appropriate to you.


‘The Pilates technique is ideal for clients wanting a self-help programme of exercises, which will eliminate niggling aches and pains caused by stress, over training, or in some peoples’ cases total inactivity.’


G.H. Fitness will be starting their autumn


programme of Fitness and Pilates courses in September. They have classes in Newton Abbot, Teignmouth, Totnes, Ipplepen, Stokeinteignhead, Kingsteignton and will be launching new Fitness and Pilates classes at their new Monday evening venue Canada Hill Primary School, Ogwell.
