I’ve been coming to Hernan for probably a couple of years now. His private classes are excellent, really tailored to my needs, ability and whatever else I might be training for at the moment. He’s also a really nice guy and always brings a smile and good humour to classes, as well as the hard work that Pilates involves!
Every single lesson is different. I love how unpredictable it is as I never feel bored. Hernan has such a great sense of humour which makes the class fly by. He is our local gem! The reformer lessons are led with good feedback that allow you to improve in the moment.
As someone who has practiced Pilates for 15 years, I can confidently attest that Hernan is an exceptional teacher. His mat classes are both challenging and progressive, and he approaches them with great care. I’ve also had one-on-one lessons with Hernan on his impressive machines, where he guided me through my injury recovery while training for the London Marathon. Not only is Hernan well-versed in his subject, but he also customises his classes in innovative ways to suit each individual. His studio fosters a fun, safe, and inclusive community.
PilatesNutrition 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 use language suggesting personalisation — "tailored to my", "adapted for" and "small group" recurring as patterns. For reformer pilates particularly, instructor responsiveness to individual range, restrictions and goals is the difference between a generic group class and a genuinely useful session. This signal is especially relevant if you have a specific injury, postural concern or pregnancy adaptation requirement. One recent member put it this way: "His private classes are excellent, really tailored to my needs, ability and whatever else I might be training for at the moment." — Chris Barnes.
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.
