The Classes

Beginners

This class is perfect if you are new to reformer & chair Pilates as it will introduce you to the equipment and cover the basic moves. We recommend that you come to at least four to six beginner classes if you have never done any Pilates before. Although, as everyone varies in levels and ability, please talk to your trainer about what level class you should be doing if you are unsure.

Intermediate Advanced Pilates

An energised, flowing class designed to challenge your whole body. While maintaining the key principles of Pilates, this class builds strength, control and stamina using both the Reformer and Chair. Expect a dynamic pace with layered progressions designed for those ready to take the next step up from our other classes.

Not suitable for beginners – you must be comfortable using the equipment. Different options will be provided to cater for both intermediate and advanced clients. Not recommended for rehab or pregnancy.

STRENGTH Pilates

Our Strength Pilates classes fuse Pilates fundamentals on the Reformer and Chair with traditional strength training on the mat using heavy weights. You’ll work through upper and lower body exercises designed to build strength, increase muscle mass and improve overall performance.

This style of training is not just about aesthetics — building muscle helps support joint health, improve bone density and maintain metabolic function, which becomes increasingly important as we age. Not suitable for beginners.

Jumpboard

Challenge your cardio strength as well as your core, legs and upper body with our fun, energised Jumpboard class. Using the jumpboard which attached to the front of the reformer, this low impact, high intensity class is an excellent addition to your weekly workout, giving you the variety you need in your training. You will perform a combination of your usual reformer exercises, combined with ‘jump’ sections to mix things up and give you an all rounded class that you are sure to enjoy. Not suitable for complete beginners or pre and postnatal.

All Levels

Our All Levels classes are perfect for clients who are not brand new to Pilates and are comfortable using the Reformer and Chair. In these sessions, we offer a wide range of layers, levels, modifications, and progressions so you can tailor the workout to your body and goals.

If you’ve never done Reformer or Chair Pilates before, please start with our Beginner class first. All Levels classes still assume you know how to safely set up, adjust, and use the machines.

1:1 classes

Our 1:1 sessions offer personalised programming tailored to your specific goals, needs and experience level. These are booked on request via email at info@PowerPilatesUK.com.

Semi Private Classes

Same as above, but you may wish to share your session with a friend or two at a time that suits you all

about pregnancy & pilates

Pregnant clients with an established Pilates practice at our studio are welcome to continue regular classes as long as you keep us informed about how you’re feeling throughout your pregnancy. It’s important that you’ve already learned how to safely use the machines and understand your body’s needs, and we may adapt exercises to suit your trimester and comfort.

If you’re pregnant and brand new to Pilates or strength training, it’s generally recommended to talk to your healthcare provider before starting a new exercise routine during pregnancy especially if you’re unfamiliar with the equipment or movements. While bringing activity into pregnancy can be safe and beneficial for most people, easing in with guidance from a clinician ensures it’s appropriate for your individual situation.
