Frequently asked questions
Do I need experience to join?
Not at all. Most of our clients start as complete beginners.
If you’re unsure, begin with Essentials or Gentle — we guide you through everything.
What is Reformer Pilates?
Reformer Pilates is a full-body workout performed on a specialised machine using spring resistance.
It supports your body while strengthening it, making the exercises controlled, low-impact and suitable for all levels.
What should I know before my first class?
Please arrive about 5 minutes early so we can get you set up and introduce the Reformer.
Wear comfortable workout clothes and grip socks (you’re welcome to bring your own or purchase a pair at the studio).
Bring water if you’d like.
If it’s your first time, don’t worry — the instructor will guide you through everything before we begin.
Parking nearby?
Yes, there are several easy parking options nearby:
• Tesco car park – free for 1 hour (our classes are 50 minutes)
• NCP car park directly behind the studio – approximately £2/hour
Most street parking is also free after 6pm and on Sundays.
What if I book the wrong class?
No problem — we’ll help you switch to a more suitable session.
I have an injury — can I still attend?
In most cases yes. Let your instructor know before class and we’ll offer adjustments where needed.
If you’re unsure, start with a Gentle session.
I am pregnant - Can i still attend?
Yes – we may be able to accommodate pregnancy in our classes depending on your stage and individual circumstances.
If you are pregnant, you must inform us prior to attending and have approval from your GP or midwife.
If you are new to Reformer Pilates, we may recommend starting with a 1:1 session to ensure you feel confident and supported.
As pregnancy progresses, we may offer modifications or suggest alternative options, including 1:1 sessions.
"In 10 sessions, you’ll feel the difference, in 20 you’ll see the difference, and in 30 you’ll have a whole new body.
