I really enjoy and look forward to my weekly class with Jess! Classes are small and intimate with a nice atmosphere and great location. I always come away feeling so much better in myself mentally, and physically I can really notice a difference in my strength and flexibility since joining just before Christmas! Classes are challenging but fun and would highly recommend if you want to take up Pilates
I have been training at Pulse Pilates in Jess's classes for 9 months now. I was apprehensive at first but Jess gives clear instructions throughout each class and answers any questions you have so you can't go wrong. The classes themselves are challenging with the ability to push yourself as you become stronger and more flexible. As the only male in every class I've been to I always feel comfortable. I've made progress on my strength and flexibility over time and reformer Pilates complements my overall training well.
Jess's classes are fantastic, and the setting is also lovely! I have noticed a real difference in my core strength and ability after being consistent at attending weekly classes, with plenty more opportunity for challenge ahead. Reformer is such a great workout and Jess is a great teacher.
Pulse Pilates & Fitness 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: "Reformer is such a great workout and Jess is a great teacher." — Laura Cabuche.
