My daughter really enjoys Core Pilates' lunchtime club at school, often excitedly telling me what fun adventures they had during the class while practising poses/moves and breath work. Susie the Sloth and other animals really capture the kids' imaginations, and she loves having the chance to bring Susie home! She has also attended one or two holiday clubs where she had a great time - it's really nice for them to go somewhere with so many varied activities.
We use Susie Sloths pilates club whenever it is on now as my little girl loves it. It's my favourite holiday club to send her to now. They do something different every day and she always comes home happy! Kelly and her team are brilliant. I would definitely recommend. 😃
My son (Year 6, 10 years) participated in the pilates workshop at school. He was enthusiastic about it and really enjoyed the olympic exercises they did. He has said he would like to do it again.
Bendy 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.
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.
