Pilates Plus: Pilates Program for Women 50+
Strength, Balance, and Confidence at Any Age
With live classes, replays, and guided movement education, Heather Dennis helps you feel stronger, more mobile, and supported—without the pressure of long-term commitments.
About Your Guide
Heather Dennis, Pilates + Somatic Movement Expert
You used to move with ease—hiking, gardening, swimming…then one day, things felt different. Walking hurt, reaching was harder, and your body felt like it was wearing shoes two sizes too small.
That’s where Heather comes in. With decades of somatic, Pilates, yoga, and strength training experience, she offers a different path—one that listens to your body, not ignores it.
Here, movement is a partnership: you learn to recognize tension, rebuild alignment, and rediscover playful strength. No assumptions about your age or limitations—only curiosity, compassion, and smart, supportive movement that helps you feel like yourself again.
You belong here.
And you deserve to move with confidence, joy, and ease.
Pilates Plus: Mindful Movement for Women 50+
A Smarter Way to Move, Age, and Feel Stronger
The Results You’ll Notice
You’ll leave class saying… “Why didn’t I learn this sooner?”
Because when you move with awareness and intelligence, your body starts to organize itself.
You’ll balance better on one leg
You’ll float rather than trundle when you walk
You’ll feel pulled together, instead of held together by hope and ibuprofen
Most of all, you’ll restore your rightful attitude of hope and optimism—because the future feels better when your body does.
Reconnect Your Mind and Body With Twice-Weekly Pilates
When your brain and body are headed in different directions, everything feels harder.
✓ Aches and pains? Yep.
✓ Wobbly balance? Familiar.
✓ That nagging sense that “this isn’t how I used to feel”? We get it.
Pilates Plus is a twice-weekly movement practice that gets your mind and body talking again. Gently. Intelligently. With just the right amount of challenge to wake your body up—without knocking you sideways for the rest of the day.
What Is Pilates Plus?
A unique blend of three powerful modalities:
No.1
Pilates
The gold standard of intelligent strength. Joe Pilates was a visionary—he knew your spine needed to move, and he built a system to help it do just that. We’ll use Pilates to build support, control, and strength in all the right places.
No.2
Slings Myofascial Yoga
Where Pilates, yoga, and myofascial release intersect. We train your tissues to be resilient and responsive—because softness and strength go hand in hand.
No.3
3. Somatics
This is the brainy bit. How you move is just as important as what you move. We’ll work with awareness, curiosity, and attention—because what you pay attention to shapes how you feel.
This isn’t follow-along fitness.
It’s movement education.
It’s a chance to get back in the driver’s seat of your own body.

Why Work With Heather?
Smart, supportive Pilates for women 50+—rooted in 30 years of movement education.
Why Work With Heather?
Traditional approaches to Exercise, Yoga, or Pilates often place value on doing more, longer, and harder. Classes are a whirlwind of moving from pose to pose without time to settle in and allow the body to find the correct alignment your body needs for your brain and body to work in harmony.
Here we focus on quality of movement, not quantity. You won’t do as many exercises, but you’ll do them with more focus and more intensity, resulting in a deeper sense of discovery about your body, your mind, and your self.
Why Not Regular Classes?
Movement lessons are choreographed from exercises derived from over thirty years of study of Pilates, Yoga, Myofascial release, and Strength training.
The difference is a somatic approach which uses blocks, balls, and bands to create support and improved mind-body perception. This process is called proprioception, which is a fancy word for being able to feel what we are doing.
Anybody that has a body and wants to feel great living in it!
Who is it good for?
Classes are offered online.
Private coaching is also available in a fully equipped Pilates Studio near Lunenburg, Nova Scotia or by Zoom.
