MOVEVOLUTION

move – move well – move often – move under load

WHAT IS MOVEVOLUTION

At Movevolution, our aim is to promote exceptional movement at the heart of everything we do, allowing you to participate fully in everything you do. We believe your health and wellbeing should not be seen as a finite goal with a start and end point. Instead, we feel it should be continually evolving, enabling you to become leaner, stronger, healthier, injury-free, and more mobile, consistently over time.

Whilst we are proud to be able to draw upon over 20 years’ experience in Pilates, Mobility , Group Interval Training, Soft Tissue Therapy, Personal Training, Equipment Pilates, Kettlebells, and Sports Nutrition, we are more than a studio and don’t want to be seen simply as the output of the services and facilities that we offer. We work holistically – with constant dialogue across our specialisms, sharing client information – as we feel this joined-up approach gives our clients every opportunity to succeed

This is not about square pegs and round holes; nor is it a one-size-fits-all model. From your initial ‘Functional Movement Screening’, we will be able to identify your strengths and weaknesses, which will allow us to help plan the best approach to achieving your personal goals.

INDIVIDUAL PERSONAL TRAINING, PILATES AND MASSAGE

As these sessions are tailored to the individual, cost for these services will be unique to your individual programme. Please get in contact to discuss

OUR FITNESS SERVICES

PILATES

Pilates is a form of low-impact exercise that aims to strengthen muscles while improving postural alignment and flexibility. Focusing specifically on the smaller stabilisation muscles, it is the quality of movement that is key. Unlike some forms of training, Pilates is all-encompassing, with no restrictions on age, gender or skill level. Pioneered initially amongst elite athletes by the All Blacks and Pat Cash, Pilates will now almost certainly form part of individual and team training programmes. Pilates is equally beneficial to non-athletes, whether this be individuals simply looking to improve their strength and posture, or those recovering from injury or managing an ongoing illness.

KETTLEBELLS

Kettlebells are an excellent tool for a full body workout. They are mobile and accessible allowing the athlete to work in many planes developing balance, coordination and building strength underload. Their versatility makes them ideal for developing explosive speed and power as well as exercising control and range. These sessions are varied, fun and you feel and see yourself improving all the time

GROUP INTERVAL TRAINING

Group Interval Training or High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) involves short periods of intense work effort, followed by a short period of rest or active recovery. The format lends itself extremely well to small groups, as the wide variety of exercises tend not to be overly technical and allow for all areas of the body to be trained each session. The physical benefits are wide-reaching and include improvements to the cardiovascular system, lung function, metabolism, bone density, blood sugar control and hormone production, as well as significant mental health benefits.

SOFT TISSUE THERAPY

The body’s soft tissues comprise muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia (connective tissue). Therapy of these tissues requires management, manipulation and rehabilitation – soft tissue therapy is therefore as much about helping you to avoid injury in the first instance as it is about aiding recovery. Soft tissue therapy should be seen as a necessity rather than a luxury, and something that is not the restricted domain of elite athletes and competitive sport. Adopting an holistic approach, and planning therapy sessions into your training schedule, will help you to avoid injury, recover quicker, improve flexibility and mobility, and allow you to continue to do the things that you enjoy.

MOBILITY

We all have different ranges of mobility, many have excessive laxity that they struggle to control, others limited range that they are looking to improve. These mobility sessions are designed to get us all achieving our best mobility underload. It is great for the bendy weak as it helps find where to work and build strength. For those that can stretch for hours and feel as stiff as a board the next day it takes you through ranges underload and looks to lean into them. They are fun, challenging interactive sessions, they are really brilliant at building the best supple, strong body for living in.

NUTRITION

Optimal nutritional strategies are not only important in the fuelling and recovery stages of exercise, but also in ensuring we are able to maximise the significant health benefits various foods have to offer. There seems little point in negating the effort and subsequent benefits of exercising by undoing any good work in the kitchen. No two people are the same when it comes to our body’s physiological response to food. Training history, age, weight and gender are simply a few of the variables that affect our body composition. Similarly, we are all very different in our relationship with food, and the psychology surrounding eating habits should never be underestimated.

As with all our training programmes, the Movevolution approach to nutrition is personalised, dependent on your individual background and requirements. In addition, to encourage success, we will ensure that any nutrition programme is well considered, practical, realistic and sustainable.

PERSONAL TRAINING

We work with you to realise your goals and create lasting results. All our clients have requirements and a way of learning or training specific to them, we work to fit you. It is our goal to educate you and empower you to make the right training decisions that fit your goals, budget and lifestyle. We want you to enjoy the process and respond to the challenge. These sessions are not only incredible for getting you on the right track physically but they are superb for the mental health too. Setting your objectives and working towards them with someone on your side helping steer the ship is an incredible feeling.

REFORMER & CHAIR PILATES

Equipment Pilates really feels like you are building strength from the inside out. It is not about being the most powerful or the fastest runner or even weight loss. It gives you a strength and control over your movement that elite athletes work towards. There are many cross overs into other areas of training and this informs lots of our other sessions, it is incredible how you can work on rotation and foot pressure with a golfer and then assist and facilitate recovery from hip replacement or back pain. Addressing movement patterns to ensure you can achieve what is required is key. Such a wonderful way to future proof your body.

THE MOVEMENT TEAM

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

My overall fitness has improved dramatically. I no longer feel tired during the day and have lost so much unwanted weight but also out of the training sessions, the team at Movevolution have provided constant support – be it by e-mail, text message, phone or Skype – which has inspired me to really commit.

Dr Alex Watson

Vascular Surgeon

I can now ski all day without any discomfort or aching muscles. What’s more, the fat I’ve lost has allowed me to revisit sections of my wardrobe that have not seen the light of day for years.
The ongoing support is exceptional – I have been encouraged to push myself, achieving more than I ever thought I was capable of.

Alan Hendon

Senior Project Manager

I now have more energy now than I know what to do with, which is something to be celebrated. I also love that I can now go into a clothes shop and have the choice of everything, rather than the shapeless garments that hid a multitude of sins.
Having invested a lot of time, sweat and money into this adventure, I can tell you it’s the best thing I have ever done for myself.

Georgina Szanto

Primary School Teacher

I have tried to do my own thing before but failed miserably. I know, without the expertise, support and guidance of the Moveolution team, I couldn’t have achieved what I have in such a short period of time. Activities I used to find really difficult are now a ‘walk in the park.’ The most noticeable changes are improvements to my general fitness, strength and flexibility, which have given me a new lease of life on the golf course and bowling green.

Roger Easton

Retired Co Director and Chartered Surveyor

I’m in the best shape of my life – and I say that as a habitual exerciser, marathon runner, open water swimmer and adventure racer. I feel so much leaner and stronger. Also, get this – I never thought I would have to go out and buy a smaller pair of trousers.
Improvements to my strength now help me when lugging large camera bags around for days on end, as well in general day-to-day life. My sciatica and lower back pain have disappeared. I really do see this as an investment in my family and my future.
