Body Grace

Denise Gracie wants to extend a warm welcome to the entire sports community on behalf of Body Grace. Situated in Aberdeen, Body Grace is her pride and joy, offering mixed ability and over sixties group classes in the North East of Scotland. Denise, a fully qualified expert in Pilates and BarreConcept, is passionate about sharing the incredible benefits of these exercises. She aims to boost core and muscle strength, improve posture and flexibility, enhance balance, and promote relaxation, all in a friendly and enjoyable environment.

For those over sixty, Denise provides specialised Pilates classes. These sessions are geared towards staying active later in life and aim to maintain the freedom to enjoy life to its fullest. They specifically target areas prone to deterioration with age, like the hip and shoulder joints, and are tailored to meet the unique needs of older individuals.

Body Grace also offers BarreConcept classes for the over sixties. This low impact, total-body workout combines the precision of Pilates, the alignment of yoga, ballet techniques, and sports conditioning. The dynamic classes lift the butt, tone the thighs, sculpt the arms, flatten the abdominals, and burn fat, all while boosting cardiovascular fitness. Set to high-energy dance music, these classes create a fun and lively atmosphere.

In the general Pilates classes, participants can anticipate improved overall fitness, heightened body awareness, and better coordination. Pilates can also support injury prevention, aid in muscle strain recovery, and help rebuild and strengthen damaged muscle tissue. Plus, it can reduce stress and anxiety levels and improve sleep quality. By addressing muscle imbalances and correcting bad habits, Pilates helps bring the body back into alignment.

There have been heaps of positive testimonials from those who join Body Grace. Denise’s caring approach and personalised teaching style are frequently highlighted. Her students appreciate her focus on correct form and technique, helping them reach their potential while keeping safe in class. The inclusive atmosphere of Body Grace, with its welcoming mix of people, is another highlight for many.
