I have been coming for classes at Bloc studio for more than a month now, it is a gorgeous studio with high quality reformers. Natalia is an amazing instructor and has made me fall in love with pilates. Her classes are both challenging and perfect for all levels. I initially joined to better my fitness levels and balance and I can say this has improved immensely since taking her classes. Thank you!! 💖
Absolutely love it here! I’d fallen out of love with exercise as an adult, but I love coming here! My core strength and flexibility has massively improved since I started. The studio is gorgeous! I adore Natalia and Laila’s classes! They are full with the perfect balance of challenge and encouragement. Both are super friendly and welcoming
This is the PRETTIEST Pilates studio! There are loads of offers at local cafes and restaurants in Chapel A for anyone who is a member at the studio. They also organise loads of events like hikes and outdoor mat Pilates. I loved the Charlotte Tilbury event and the Taylor Swift disco ball night. All the instructors are lovely and very helpful. The studio also smells lovely and there are a wide variety of drinks as soon as you enter the studio. Definitely recommend the studio for anyone wanting to start Pilates 🥰
BLOC STUDIO Reformer 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: "Natalia is an amazing instructor and has made me fall in love with pilates." — Rhianna.
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. Saturday and Sunday slots add weekend flexibility. For peak slots (07:00 and 18:00-19:30 are the busiest across most UK boutiques), most members book the week ahead.
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.
