Do I need to always work out with the same teacher?

No not at all this is more preference than anything. All our teachers have completed full comprehensive training with over 600hrs of practice/study.

How many times a week is enough?

This all depends on your goals . But consistency is key, and we recommend a couple of times a week.

Will I lose weight and tone up with Pilates?

Weight is linked to more than just movement practice and is highly dependent on nutrition and other aspects of health and lifestyle BUT Pilates will change your appearance. With improved strength, flexibility and improved postural alignment clients often say their friends ask if they have lost weight.

Can I start with classes?

You can but we highly recommend starting first with our 1:1 discovery session and some privates unless you already have some Classical Pilates under your belt.

I’ve just had a baby can I attend?

Post-natal once given clearance by your doctor/physician yes. Again, we recommend a series of privates to start/

I’m pregnant can I attend?

Yes, however again clearance from your doctor is advised and it’s not recommended to start anything new within your pregnancy or if you have been inactive especially within your first 3 months/first trimester. As each pregnancy can differ, we also recommend privates rather than group sessions so the session can be tailored to your specific needs, so you get the most out of each session.

I’m recovering from an injury can I attend?

Yes. First gain clearance from physician, pass on to us any notes from surgeons and physios etc. Private sessions also recommended to tailor sessions to your needs.

I’m not very flexible or strong

We can help with that. Everyone has to start from the base so you are not somewhere others have never been. You may ever surprise yourself.

Is Pilates for men, isn’t it all pelvic floor work?

Absolutely and no. Pilates is fantastic for everyone. It is a challenging workout even for the strongest of men.

Am I too old to start?

Joseph was seen to be fittest in his 80s and there is nothing stopping you from starting at any age. It’s a process and discipline and doesn’t have prerequisites on ability. Pilates works with you.

I can’t find a session/class time that suits my requirements?

We are always open to suggestions for additional classes, class times and always happy to see if one of our teachers is available at a time you would like a session. The same for corporate classes/specialist sessions and workshops – please do get in touch.
