First time to try Reformer Pilates and it was a great experience. Dolores made me feel at ease and was so helpful guiding me through the steps/moves. Will definitely come back again either on my own or with some girl friends 🥰💖
A great new addition to Prestwich. A beautiful Reformer Pilates studio with a range of classes for all levels. The beginners flow class was brilliant, the instructor was knowledgeable and able to tailor the moves for the different abilities in the class. She explained how the beds work I made it all really simple so we could focus on enjoying the class. Can’t wait to do it again!
This was my ninth class at Release, and I’m genuinely obsessed. The studio is everything I hoped a Pilates space would be—beautiful, clean, and so thoughtfully designed. The instructors are warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. Every class leaves me feeling stronger, more confident, and like I’m truly progressing. I absolutely love it here!
release Reformer 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 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: "The beginners flow class was brilliant, the instructor was knowledgeable and able to tailor the moves for the different abilities in the class." — debbie Aspery.
Google lists the studio as open before 7am on at least one weekday and until 8pm or later on another, which usually suits a 9-to-6 working day. Weekend opening is listed too. Opening hours are not the same as the class timetable — check the studio's own schedule before planning around a specific slot. Across UK boutiques, 07:00 and 18:00-19:30 are the busiest times.
Practice varies by studio, so confirm the format when you get in touch. As a general guide across UK boutique reformer studios: newcomers are usually pointed to a beginner-tagged class or a 1-1 introduction rather than a mixed-level group, arriving 10-15 minutes early is normal, and grip socks are widely required (some studios sell them for £8-15). Form-fitting clothing lets the instructor see your alignment. The first class is the steepest learning curve — by the third session the equipment feels far more intuitive.
