After having some niggling injuries, I signed up to do Pilates and have had several 1-2-1 sessions with Jane. I'd really recommend her, she's improved my technique massively, is very knowledgeable and puts together well-designed sessions to work on specific areas. Definitely feeling much better since going!
I started 1-2-1 sessions with Jane this summer and have loved every class. I felt my own Pilates knowledge and practice could be improved. Janes wealth of knowledge and experience is evident. I could not recommend her highly enough. Thank you for all of your help!
I’ve been having 1:1 Pilates sessions with Jane for a while now, and her knowledge is second to none. She has a calm, reassuring presence that makes every session feel both productive and relaxing. Jane has a great way of explaining things, ensuring I understand how each movement benefits my body. She also recommends insightful wellbeing books, which have really helped me deepen my understanding of how physical alignment connects with mental health. I always leave our sessions feeling better - both physically and mentally.
Jane Heath 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: "I'd really recommend her, she's improved my technique massively, is very knowledgeable and puts together well-designed sessions to work on specific areas." — SP.
