I’ve been attending their private Pilates classes, and I highly recommend them! In just 6 to 8 weeks, I’ve seen fantastic improvements in my posture. I no longer experience any back pain too. Even friends who have known me for a long time have mentioned how much my posture has improved! I'm very with the results!
The instructors are really amazing, everyone of them has their own way to teach and the combination of all gives you a great understanding of classic pilates. The sessions are reduced numbers (4 people in tower and chairs, 3 in reformer and 9 in mat classes) that gives the instructor the opportunity to correct and perfect your position and make sure you are doing your exercises properly. I have been attending for over a year now and my back problems are resolved. No needs for phisio anymore. Great and caring team.
Very friendly Pilates Studio with knowledgeable and helpful instructors. The studio is well equipped with reformers, towers, boxes and mats with classes to suit every level. Class sizes are kept small enough to ensure that you get excellent tuition and they're happy to help If you don't quite get it. I've just started going to beginner Reformer classes to help manage some lower back pain. I need to strengthen my core and loosen off my tight hamstrings and hip flexors - After just 3 sessions i can already feel this making a difference. Pilates is such a fantastic way to strengthen your body. I highly recommend their reformer and tower classes.
Everybody Pilates - Locks Heath 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.
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.
