I've been going to pilates here for a number of years. The classes are small so everyone gets individual attention. Clare is a great teacher! She is extremely professional and experienced and ensures none of us do exercises that are unsuitable for our particular needs. The classes are different each week so there's no chance of getting bored!. I've been to a number of other Pilates classes and I think the is the best!
As an active 76 year old, I look to Pilates to keep me fit and supple. And that’s exactly what going to HovePilates has done. Claire runs well-planned, well-prepared classes. She knows about our individual weak spots or temporary injuries and takes them properly into account. She makes room for humour and the classes, though serious are also fun. She is an excellent teacher and I feel really fortunate to have found her. I derive huge benefits from attending and always feel so much better after a class. Liz Simpson
For 12 years I have benefited from Claire’s expertise and skill in teaching me how to practice Pilates in a safe and life-enriching way. Classes are always fun (and sometimes hilarious) but are never competitive. I often feel challenged but never embarrassed. Thanks Claire. Mandy
Hove 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 classes are small so everyone gets individual attention." — Suzanne O.Hara.
