Have been doing matwork Pilates with Teresa for many years. She is an excellent instructor and hugely knowledgable. I’ve noticed great improvement in my fitness and mobility. I start Reformer Pilates with Metta movement when the studio opened a couple of years ago, and have been going every week since. Teresa has created amazing community of instructors and clients, and I love being a part of it.
I just had a fantastic Pilates Reformer class with Sherrine! She was such a great instructor — patient, encouraging, and very clear with her guidance. I felt supported throughout the session and really enjoyed the workout. The class was well-paced, challenging in all the right ways, and left me feeling strong and refreshed. Highly recommend taking a class with Sherrine!
I started Reformer Pilates with Metta this January as part of my New Year’s resolution, and I’m so glad to say it’s still going strong! I’ve never been an especially active person, but their small group classes (maximum of 4 people) have been truly life-changing. My job is very desk-bound and involves around 7 hours of mouse-clicking a day, which has left me with constant neck and back pain. I’ve tried the gym, running, and even regular mat Pilates, but I could never stick to any of them. Since starting Reformer Pilates once a week—just 50 minutes per session—the pain has completely disappeared. It honestly feels like magic, and over the past 8 months, I’ve noticed real, gradual strength building too. The classes are brilliantly run, and the instructors are the best I’ve ever met. Teresa genuinely cares about every single member and every single class. It’s so rare to find such a welcoming community and someone who puts so much effort into tailoring feedback to individual needs. All of their instructors are carefully chosen, bringing professionalism, amazing energy, and so much care into each session—while also making it fun! I feel incredibly lucky to have found this place.
Metta Movement , Pilates Beckenham 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: "She was such a great instructor — patient, encouraging, and very clear with her guidance." — Catherine Rubaine.
Yes — at least one weekday class runs until 20:00 or later, which suits members training after a standard working day. Evening peaks at most UK pilates studios run from 18:00 to 19:30, with later 20:00-21:00 slots usually quieter and easier to book on the day.
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.
