"I have experienced amazing physical results / rehabilitation while attending Sara's Pilates classes since 2003. I have improved flexibility and strength after many years of physio / chiropractic / osteopathic treatment from a spinal injury in 1983.
"I am also now more confident and positive about what lies ahead of me in the future. Feel good - look good - look ahead with a renewed strength - externally and internally. FANTASTIC!!" - Glenys Hickton, 54
"Joan and I have been attending Clinical Pilates equipment sessions regularly for approximately 18 months. We are generally anti-exercise and it is a testament to the quality of the programme that we have attended so regularly over such a period of time. We find the Clinical Pilates regime, combined with regular walks, has done wonders for both of us.
Joan injured her shoulder (not related to Pilates) and did leg exercises but not arm exercises for a number of months. When recovering from shoulder surgery, sore and only able to use one arm, she was particularly thankful for the strength in her legs that came from the Clinical Pilates exercises. Stronger legs eased the process of getting into and out of bed and getting up and down. This was an unexpected benefit and extraordinary helpful in the recovery process.
The quality of instruction and care for aching or strained muscles is excellent. Sara and her team provide a wonderfully safe, friendly and enjoyable atmosphere." - Rob Crozier, 58 & Joan Allin, 54

About the Clinic
Beach Physio & Clinical Pilates at Raumati Beach, aims to provide a pleasant, relaxing and personalised environment for exercise, rehabiliation and injury management.
Sara Dore opened her business from home on the Kapiti Coast in 2003. Due to rapid expansion of her business in September 2004 she moved to 3 Alexander Road, Raumati Beach. A post graduate trained manipulative physiotherapist and qualified Pilates instructor through Dance Medicine Australia (Melbourne), Sara had her own physiotherapy practice in Lower Hutt specialising in spinal and sports injuries for eight years before she discovered the benefits that Clinical Pilates could also bring to physiotherapy. The business expanded again in early 2009 with the addition of Sara's business partner: Ryan Monastra. The clinic can now offer quality and professional physiotherapy services together with more pilates classes, and extended hours.
The Beach Physio & Clinical Pilates studio is a large fully equipped clinic. It includes top quality Clinical Pilates equipment – reformers, trapeze beds, thoracic barrel, wobble board, and mat equipment. This equipment is used for both the exercise programmes and physiotherapy rehabilitation. (the clinic is ACC registered).
As well as the main equipment room the clinic includes a separate room for mat classes and private rooms for one on one sessions. A separate consultation room is also used for individual physiotherapy assessments and treatments.
Pilates Equipment Classes
Individual programmes are designed by physiotherapists Sara Dore, Ryan Monastra and Robyn Mourie to assist you to meet your goals and objectives. We also encourage you to continue your training in your own home by providing you with a home programme that compliments the equipment training at the studio and is tailored to your specific goals.
We have a range of times available through the day and in the evenings and bookings are by appointment only.
If you have a group of friends and you would like to start your own class at a time other than what we have advertised on our timetable below give us a call and we'll see what we can work out for you.
Individual programmes are fully supervised and the first 4 sessions include an assessment and one on one instruction on the equipment.
Once you have completed your first 4 sessions you will progress on to Semi-supervised sessions which include 4 to 5 people per session. These can be paid as you go or you are welcome to purchase a concession pass at a reduced rate. If you would like to discuss a shared session option for yourself and a friend, this is also available.
We provide Equipment Circuit Classes that include up to 5 people per session and are semi supervised. Payment for these classes is on a Term by Term basis.
The Studio physiotherapists are also able to provide Rehabilitation Sessions which are fully supervised, one on one, for a half hour session.
At any stage of your training we invite you to book for a Programme reassessment which is a one on one session for 30 minutes.
Pilates Matwork Classes
The Matwork classes are choreographed by Sara Dore and Ryan Monastra, Directors of the studio and physiotherapists. The classes are run in groups of 6 – 10 people and exercises are modified to benefit individual clients. We provide and teach a home programme to everyone and encourage this to be done regularly.
