By watching, reading, or engaging with the information, videos, blog posts and other material provided by Professor Pilates, you acknowledge and agree you have read and understood the following.
It is recommended that you discuss this with your GP or Health Professional before commencing any new exercise programme.
We recommend you begin with beginner exercises, taking the foundation options before progressing to more advanced ones. Different levels will be demonstrated within each programme, and you are advised to work to a level that you feel comfortable with and only progress the exercises once you feel ready. It is essential to realise that you should stop whenever you wish, especially if you feel tired or discomfort.
None of the exercises should cause you to experience any pain. You should stop immediately if you experience pain from any of the exercises.
With exercise, there exists the possibility of certain dangers such as abnormal blood pressure, fainting, and irregular/fast or slow heart rhythm. It is impossible to predict the body’s exact response to exercise. Therefore, if you have any medical issues, these need to be discussed with the appropriate Healthcare Professional before commencing the programme.
All exercises are undertaken at your own risk, and Professor Pilates or its affiliates cannot be held responsible for any injuries.
Do NOT undertake the exercises available online if any of the following applies to you:
👉 A Doctor or other Healthcare Professional has ever informed you that you should refrain from exercising or undertaking Pilates for any reason.
👉 A Doctor or other Healthcare Professional has ever informed you that you have a heart condition or that you should only exercise under the direct supervision of a Doctor or other Healthcare Professional.
👉 You are suffering from uncontrolled high blood pressure or low blood pressure.
👉 You are suffering from undiagnosed pain or are generally feeling unwell.
👉 Have you undergone any surgery in the past 6 months, or have any injuries.
👉 You are under the care of a consultant or Healthcare Professional and have not discussed the impacts of Pilates to you with them.
👉 You have any joint or muscular issues that may be aggravated by exercise?
👉 You are pregnant, breastfeeding or lactating.
This is not an exhaustive list; you acknowledge and understand that physical exercise can expose the risk of serious injury. We strongly advise that if you are unsure if Pilates suits you, you seek medical advice before starting the programme.
