WELCOME

REFORMER

Reformer is our cup of tea! Our reformer sessions run for a smooth 45 minutes, blending fluid movement to help you find your inner balance and strength. Each session is designed to enhance flexibility, build core stability, and improve overall body alignment. Our Instructors will guide you through a series of dynamic exercises, allowing for a full-body workout that targets every muscle group, while also promoting relaxation and mental clarity.

STRETCH & FLOW

This gentle Reformer class is perfect for those seeking a slower-paced session.

With a focus on mindful movement, we’ll guide you through stretches and flowing exercises designed to improve flexibility, mobility, and overall wellbeing. Our low-impact approach ensures you can move safely and comfortably, with options tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're rebuilding confidence, working through rehabilitation, or simply looking for a calm, restorative practice, this class offers a supportive and relaxed environment.

1:1 SESSIONS

Our 1:1 Reformer sessions offer a fully personalised Pilates experience, tailored entirely to you.

Whether you're brand new to Reformer, returning from injury, navigating pregnancy or postpartum, working towards specific goals, or simply prefer individual guidance, these sessions allow your instructor to create a program that meets you where you're at. With dedicated support, hands-on coaching and exercise selection designed around your body, you'll have the space to build confidence, refine technique and move with intention.

For those looking to commit to regular sessions, we also offer 5-session and 10-session packs, providing a consistent and supportive approach to your movement practice.

We also offer 2:1 Reformer sessions, allowing you to share a personalised session with a friend, partner or family member while still receiving tailored instruction and individual support.
