Before your first class

Health & Readiness Questionnaire

To keep every session safe and tailored to you, please complete this short questionnaire before your first class or 1:1 with Pam. It takes about three minutes. Your answers are confidential and go straight to Pam.

1. About you

So Pam can match this form to your booking.

2. General health (PAR-Q+)

Please answer honestly — a "Yes" doesn't mean you can't take part, it just helps Pam adapt your session.

Has your doctor ever said that you have a heart condition or high blood pressure?

Do you feel pain in your chest at rest, during daily activities, or when you do physical activity?

Do you lose balance because of dizziness, or have you lost consciousness in the last 12 months?

Have you ever been diagnosed with another chronic medical condition (other than heart disease or high blood pressure)?

Are you currently taking prescribed medication for a chronic medical condition?

Do you currently have (or have you had within the past 12 months) a bone, joint or soft-tissue problem (muscle, ligament or tendon) that could be made worse by becoming more physically active?

Has your doctor ever said that you should only do medically supervised physical activity?

3. Movement & Pilates specifics

These help Pam plan the right exercises and modifications for you.

Do you have any current injury, pain or area of your body that Pam should be careful with?

Have you had any surgery in the last 12 months, or a joint replacement at any time?

Are you pregnant, or have you given birth in the last 12 months?

Have you been diagnosed with osteoporosis or osteopenia, or a spinal condition (e.g. disc problems, scoliosis)?

Is this your first experience of Pilates?

4. Declaration & consent

Please read and tick each statement.

If you answered "Yes" to any question in section 2 and haven't already spoken to your GP, please do so before your first class. Pam will be in touch to talk it through — this is about keeping you safe, not keeping you out.

Your form is sent securely to Pam. You'll see a confirmation on the next page.

Please check the highlighted fields — every question in sections 2 and 3 needs a Yes or No.
