Pilates during chemo

Hello Dianne,

If you have always done pilates and you can manage a class then why not.

I would advise the class instructor so they can keep an eye on you.

If in doubt always check with your oncologist or GP.

I figure you know your body better than anybody else so slow down and listen to what it is telling you. If you can manage a pilates class then do it girl.

Personally I couldn't manage return to pilates, hatha yoga or boxing. NO more fast impact stuff for me, I have found yin yoga to be amazing. It is much slower and mostly floor poses. I have found a teacher that understands and works with some cancer patients which is wonderful.

Basicly Dianne, listen to your body.

All the best.
