Your questions, answered

Absolutely, and many of our clients do. We recommend beginning with a 'New Client' package — three group classes, or three 1:1 sessions — so you can explore the options before committing to a block. You do not need to be flexible, strong or coordinated to start; it's by attending that you become so.

Our group classes never exceed six clients, and several are capped at just four. That keeps the attention on your movement and lets your teacher adjust technique in the moment.

Mat Pilates is carried out on a mat using your own body as resistance — small, friendly classes of no more than six. Equipment Pilates uses studio machines with springs for resistance, to help you connect and build strength. Equipment features in our 1:1s, duets and group Tower classes.

Please get in touch before booking so we can advise you properly. If you're rehabilitating from an injury we'd always recommend starting one-to-one with our expertly trained teachers, who can work gently and progressively — often alongside your physio or specialist.

Not necessarily — there may be another 1:1 happening at the same time — but you'll have the undivided attention of your teacher throughout to keep you focused.

We don't run specific pregnancy or post-natal group classes, so we'd recommend booking a 1:1 with one of our expertly trained teachers. Please wait until you have your doctor's approval to exercise after birth (minimum six weeks after a natural birth, twelve weeks after a caesarean).

Absolutely not — Pilates is suitable for all ages and abilities. Our Slow & Steady class is specially adapted for those with good foundations who are managing ongoing physical concerns, at a slower, more considered pace.

Comfortable clothes you can move in — leggings and a t-shirt are ideal. Please avoid anything with zips, as these damage the equipment. You may like to bring a hand towel and a bottle of water.

Yes — there's ample parking within the fenced premises, plus overflow parking outside. We don't have changing rooms at the studio, but there is a toilet on site.

All sessions are pre-booked and paid for in advance, online or through our app — we can't take drop-in payment at the door. If you can't see the class or time you're after, email hello@pilatesfromwithin.com and we'll do our best to help.

We operate a 24-hour cancellation policy. Any session cancelled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours' notice, and any no-show, is charged in full.
