I have been attending Kim's classes for nearly 2 years following a back injury. The classes have really helped to strengthen my core & therefore better protect my spine - though my whole body benefits from the range of mobility & strengthening exercises. Kim is great fun but also very experienced - she'll always suggest alternative positions for anyone that is experiencing discomfort or recovering from an injury. I highly recommended Kim's classes! :-)

I have been doing pilates with Kim for a few months now. It has literally changed my life mentally and physically. As a menopausal woman I was struggling with aches and pains and not being flexible anymore. Kim is an inspiring teacher and her coaching is excellent and she can tailor make options suited to your needs. I feel physical stronger and fitter and no longer struggling with the back and hip pain I was suffering with.
Pilates types offered
What you can practice at PilatesCOREuk
PilatesCOREuk 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do members say about the instructors at PilatesCOREuk?
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: "What truly sets Kim apart is her encouraging and positive approach." — Danielle.
Are there evening classes at PilatesCOREuk?
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.
What should I expect from my first reformer class at PilatesCOREuk?
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.
