Liverpool Pilates Hub - Lark Lane | Baltic Triangle | Bebington

Sophie's Pilates classes are absolutely fantastic. When I moved to the area in 2019 I started going to the Lark Lane Power Pilates classes - a mixture of traditional mat-based work with strength-based circuit training. During Covid all her classes moved online, and now I enjoy a mixture of in-person classes when I'm around alongside the convenience of a monthly online subscription. That means I can always do Pilates wherever I am. The classes are varied which means I never get bored, and Sophie is an exemplary teacher - clear instructions, and always very supportive.

Until recently moving away, I had been attending Sophie’s classes for nearly ten years, and I would be lying if I said it’s not something I deeply miss. Sophie is an incredibly knowledgeable Pilates instructor and personal trainer who genuinely cares about her clients and their progress. Her Power class in particular was always thoughtfully planned, with progressions and regressions to suit every level of ability. It was a genuine joy to attend, especially when she had learned something new and would start the class with a huge smile (not that she isn’t always smiling), sharing that knowledge with infectious enthusiasm. She creates such a supportive and encouraging environment that training with her felt like an hour each week dedicated not just to physical health, but to supporting my mental wellbeing too. As a personal trainer myself, she has also been a huge professional inspiration. The standard of care, attention and passion she brings to her work is something I truly admire and continually strive to reflect in my own coaching. Over the years, Sophie has become someone I feel very lucky to count as a friend. If you want someone professional, motivating and genuinely invested in helping you feel your best, she should be your first choice.

I've been attending Sophie's classes for a couple of years and they are excellent. She’s a great teacher, and the sessions are always well paced and varied, with a different theme each week. Sophie is also very attentive. When I was recovering from an injury, she suggested low-impact options so I could still do some exercises safely. I’d definitely recommend her classes.
