BEGINNER Pilates classes teach the principles and foundations of Pilates. We progressively layer exercises meaning those who have been coming for longer can be challenged yet those new to class can be guided to suit them, meaning everyone feels safely supported and challenged.
INTERMEDIATE classes build on the foundational Pilates principles and add fun and challenging sequences to further develop strength, flexibility and stability.
PILATES FOR RUNNERS – these Physio led classes aim to progressively improve your strength, postural endurance, mobility and biomechanics to elevate your overall running performance and recovery.
PILATES FOR DANCERS classes are run by our Dance Specialist Physiotherapist Shannon and are specifically designed for children
POST-NATAL classes are run by a specialised physiotherapist with further training in women’s health and post-natal exercise and are suitable for people with 12 week olds and up. It is a beginner to intermediate level class that promotes optimal posture, flexibility and strength, specifically focussing on abdominal and pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation. You must be cleared by your doctor for exercise and book in for an Initial Pilates assessment with a physiotherapist first.
The Initial Assessment will also include screening for bladder, bowel, sexual pain, musculoskeletal issues or injuries, and your exercise goals and aims. Depending on these results, the physiotherapist can delve deeper into making a management plan to suit you. This assessment may also involve assessing some of the common exercises found in the class you’re going to be attending to give you a chance to practise your technique in a more supervised way.
PRE-NATAL classes are run by a specialised physiotherapist with further training in pre & post-natal exercise and are suitable for people 2nd to 3rd trimester. It is a beginner to intermediate level class that promotes optimal posture, flexibility and strength, specifically focussing on abdominal and pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation.

ASSISTED PILATES CLASSES classes are taken by our Neuro Physiotherapist Lynnssay and are suitable for those who find movement/exercise challenging or those living with a long term health condition (such as osteoporosis, multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia etc) which limit your ability to exercise. This class can be modified – aiming to make Pilates accessible to all.
PILATES FOR KIDS
PILATES FOR GOLFERS
Our group reformer classes have up to 6 people in them and are taken by our highly experienced Physiotherapists and Pilates Instructors.
The use of Reformer beds, magic circles and weights are an excellent way of adding resistance to exercises, which means you get a full body program that focuses on getting the most out of the class for you.
We have a wide range of classes from beginner classes to pre & post natal reformer. We also have sports specific classes and various levels. Please follow the ‘book a class’ button on home page to see a full list of all classes currently on offer
Studio Pilates involves one of our highly experienced Pilates Instructors or Physiotherapists designing a personalised program that addresses your specific needs and goals. Our Studio Pilates classes are capped at three people, so you have an expert guiding you for your whole session with a more individualised approach. We will use a variety of equipment including reformer, trapeze and the barrel. All of those wishing to join studio sessions are encouraged to book in for an initial Pilates 1:1 Session first and advise you from here.
They can take a detailed history and assessment then will go over the foundations with you, including breathing and how to activate your deep core muscles and pelvic floor correctly. They will also advise you on the best next steps, whether that might be doing a couple of 1:1 sessions first before going into classes – they will provide you with the confidence and support you need.
Clinical Pilates sessions are led by our highly skilled physiotherapists. The sessions utilise a mix of the studio equipment including reformers and trapeze table amongst others depending on your individual needs. Our physiotherapists have extensive experience and training using Pilates as an effective rehab tool and will tailor a programme to your specific needs. Whether it’s for post-natal recovery, post operative rehabilitation or an elite athlete looking for an injury prevention and sports conditioning programme, we will support you in achieving whatever your goals. Before attending these sessions, you will need to book an Initial Pilates Assessment with a Physiotherapist.
Remedial Massage
Our massage therapist uses techniques to treat muscular problems where there is significant pain or loss of movement. This style of massage is designed for the treatment of short and long term injuries. Deeply mobilising, this form of massage uses firm pressure and stretching to loosen key areas of tightness, restoring flexibility and movement
Sports Massage
Our massage therapist works on specific muscles, taking into account the injuries that the individuals sport may put on their body.
Our physiotherapists are trained to diagnose, manage and treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions and injuries. They are also skilled in continuing rehabilitation after surgery, coordinating treatment protocols, liaising with surgeons and GPs in order to achieve best possible outcomes.
We use manual therapy and hands-on techniques to assess and treat the area of discomfort. We will also help identify the factors that cause and aggravate your condition, such as postural, work and lifestyle habits and can provide exercise therapy and strategies to enhance your recovery and reduce injury recurrence.
Conditions we treat include:
Back and Neck pain
