I have been going to Bondi ever since beginning of 2024 and it’s one of the best decisions I have ever made! Being afraid of group exercise classes in the past and loving going to the gym I was apprehensive in trying something but I have not looked back. All the trainers but especially Steph, Chloe and Alice have been amazing! They are welcoming, supportive and knowledgeable and make classes fun yet challenging! Everything is scalable so suitable for beginners or those who have not tried Pilates before. Stretch and flow specifically has also helped my gym training and mobility and reduced the pain and tension in my back from a desk job. Cannot recommend Bondi highly enough.
160 classes at Bondi and still loving it! I’ve seen real results in my strength, tone, and posture since starting back in February 2024. The instructors are fantastic: they really know how to push you to do your best, but in a way that feels encouraging, never competitive. Every session leaves me feeling stronger, more focused, and proud of what I’ve achieved. You almost feel taller leaving class It’s such a positive, welcoming place.
BONDI Pilates - Dundonald, East Belfast offers 2 pilates disciplines. Each one is suited to different goals — read the breakdown below to see which fits.
Reformer pilates is performed on a specialised piece of equipment using adjustable spring resistance. It targets deeper stabilising muscles than mat-based pilates and is widely used for posture correction, core strength, injury rehabilitation and pre/postnatal training.
Mat pilates uses your bodyweight on a padded mat, often with small props like resistance bands, blocks and pilates balls. It's the most accessible form of pilates — no heavy equipment, lower price points, and easier to continue at home.

Honest, specific answers about this studio.
every recent review mention the instructors in positive terms — words such as "knowledgeable", "attentive" and "encouraging" recur most frequently. Members citing specific cues, form corrections or named instructors is a strong sign of relationship-led teaching rather than transactional class delivery. If instructor depth matters for your decision (particularly for clinical or prenatal-focused pilates), this is a useful positive signal. One recent member put it this way: "The instructors are amazing, attentive, helpful and extremely welcoming." — Anna Forsythe.
Google lists the studio as open before 7am on at least one weekday and until 8pm or later on another, which usually suits a 9-to-6 working day. Weekend opening is listed too. Opening hours are not the same as the class timetable — check the studio's own schedule before planning around a specific slot. Across UK boutiques, 07:00 and 18:00-19:30 are the busiest times.
Practice varies by studio, so confirm the format when you get in touch. As a general guide across UK boutique reformer studios: newcomers are usually pointed to a beginner-tagged class or a 1-1 introduction rather than a mixed-level group, arriving 10-15 minutes early is normal, and grip socks are widely required (some studios sell them for £8-15). Form-fitting clothing lets the instructor see your alignment. The first class is the steepest learning curve — by the third session the equipment feels far more intuitive.
