Since the first session I had with Natalie for mat Pilates it was such an amazing session 😍loved how technical and slow paced it was! Also my first tower session I had with marika was also amazing loved the entire flow of it! The studio owner Lydiana is super lovely and welcoming, highly recommend this studio to all as they offer three different types of classes. Looking forward to going back again 🫶🫶
beautiful space with lovely instructors! great for beginners with the taster class and a full class shortly after if you enjoyed the taster! the sessions feel personal and the ambience is so lovely
Loved my class with Tia at Small Pilates Studio so much. The space is beautiful and calming with brand new equipment. I was a bit nervous as a newbie to Pilates but it was perfect being in a smaller class with more attention from our instructor. Can’t recommend the space or the lovely and welcoming team enough.
Small 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.
2 of 3 recent reviews describe the studio atmosphere positively — recurring descriptors include "welcoming", "calming" and "no judgement". This kind of language pattern, particularly across multiple reviewers, tends to indicate a settled member community rather than a high-turnover commercial environment. If you're new to pilates and concerned about feeling out of place at your first class, this is the indicator most worth weighting. One recent member put it this way: "The studio owner Lydiana is super lovely and welcoming, highly recommend this studio to all as they offer three different types of classes." — Maisha Riyah.
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.
