I tried out the mummy and baby class with Andrea for the first time last week. I am 3 months postpartum and I was really nervous to go. Andrea made the whole class fun and enjoyable. She was very helpful by making sure my body was in the correct position and lent me her tripod so I could film myself in the class😊 I also tried the level 1 class with Ollie. I felt so good after the sessions and I was shaking so much afterwards! I can’t wait to build up strength. Thank you I will be back for more classes 🥰

What you can practice at Elite Lux Reformer Pilates
Elite Lux Reformer Pilates offers 2 pilates disciplines. Each one is suited to different goals — read the breakdown below to see which fits.
Reformer Pilates
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
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Elite Lux Reformer Pilates suitable for pregnancy or postnatal practice?
one of the 3 recent reviews mention prenatal or postnatal pilates contexts. For pregnancy practice, ask whether the lead instructor holds APPI Pre/Postnatal Pilates or Body Control Pilates Maternal certification — these are the two main UK qualification pathways for safe trimester-aware programming. GP or midwife clearance is typically required from 12-14 weeks; reputable studios will ask about it before booking your first session. One recent member put it this way: "I am 3 months postpartum and I was really nervous to go." — Paige Azzopardi.
Can I fit Elite Lux Reformer Pilates around a full-time job?
Yes — the studio runs both pre-work classes (6am or earlier most days) and evening sessions running past 8pm, which together cover the standard 9-to-6 working day.

What should I expect from my first reformer class at Elite Lux Reformer Pilates?
Most UK boutique reformers start newcomers with a beginner-tagged class or a 1-1 intro session rather than dropping them into a mixed-level group. Arrive 10-15 minutes early; you'll be shown carriage adjustment, spring tension and basic safety. Wear grip socks (mandatory at most studios — they sell pairs for £8-15 if you don't have them) and form-fitting clothing that lets the instructor see your alignment. The first class is the steepest learning curve — by your third session, the equipment feels much more intuitive.
