Not Flexible? Male? Not exercised for ages/years/never? Overweight?
Don't let that put you off! You will fit in just fine.
We run small mixed classes for all abilities, ages and fitness levels. The majority of our clients are normal human beings, not super fit stick insects in designer workout gear.
Many work long hours, spent in front of desks, laptops, keyboards and steering wheels. They have busy lives and usually come because they have been referred or seen friends/family come and enjoy it, benefit from it and and keep coming back for more.
Many stay and stay. We can't get rid of them, thank goodness, they are great fun, work hard, drive us mad occasionally , generally enjoy class and we enjoy teaching them. That's why there is usually a waiting list for our classes.
But it’s worth the wait. Truly!
Fit and Healthy? Weekend Warrior? Ride, Ski, Tennis......
Great, we can help you too!
We teach the County Cricket Players and many other local professional sports people. We can show you how Pilates and the Pilates Equipment can challenge you in ways conventional gym equipment can't reach! Why do you think Cirque Du Soleil travel with all the equipment that we have in our studio!

FINALLY... this website is a work in progress, so please bear with me as I find yet another spelling mistake or something not quite lined up as I would like. if you find any real howlers, please do let me know.
After 15 years of teaching I have a reasonable idea about all the questions/worries/concerns that you may have and they will be on the Commonly Asked Questions Page, so do try there first.
If you still need further assistance to email or call me, but do bear in mind our teaching days are long so it might take a couple of days to get back to you. Please be patient.
