★★★★★ Fantastic Start to My Pilates Journey! Only been coming to this class for 2 weeks and I'm already hooked! The instructor is so knowledgeable and patient – they make sure everyone's form is correct, which is perfect as I'm new to Pilates. The studio is bright, clean, and the small class size means great individual attention. I can already feel better flexibility and less tension in my shoulders, plus the friendly atmosphere makes every session enjoyable.
Absolutely obsessed!!! I’m hooked and it’s only been a week I wish I was there every day. Everyone is so lovely and welcoming and sweet and so genuine. The vibes are immaculate and don’t even get me started on the place 😍😍. 10/10 would so highly recommend especially for new beginners I’ve never attended a Pilates session before this place opened but now I just can’t let it go
I just wanted to say that the past few sessions have been amazing. This is my first time starting Pilates, and I’ve honestly enjoyed every session so far. I can’t wait for my upcoming sessions with you both, in’ sha Allah. You are both incredible instructors. Even though the sessions are absolute killers and my body definitely hurts the next day (haha), I’m so glad I joined. It’s been such a great experience already. Thank you again
Xén Pilates 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.
one of the 3 recent reviews 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 instructor is so knowledgeable and patient – they make sure everyone's form is correct, which is perfect as I'm new to Pilates." — Hajra Yousafzai.
