Pilates with Joe is brilliant. Over the past year 1-2-1 classes have helped me progress from a complete beginner to Pilates being a key part of my fitness and well being routine. Classes are both educational and fun!

This is a fantastic Pilates studio with all the modern equipment that you need. Joe is a fantastic teacher and the one on one teaching is so much more beneficial than being taught in a big class. Joe focusses on your specific needs and I can say after many lessons I now find my posture is markedly different. Highly recommend.

Following a total knee replacement I couldn't bend my knee sufficiently to even ride my bike. After Pilates sessions with Joe my knee bends almost as good as the good one. My weekly sessions are great fun and are now part of my fitness regime.

What you can practice at Richmond Studio Pilates
Richmond Studio Pilates offers 2 pilates disciplines. Each one is suited to different goals — read the breakdown below to see which fits.
Reformer Pilates
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
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.
