I had my second ever yoga class here today. This is a great place to go if you are a beginner, and the instructor Deborah was fantastic. She makes sure everyone is comfortable and included. The studio is brand new, and all the staff are very genuine and welcoming. I like the Friday evening class Yin And Restorative - it is a lovely way to start the weekend. So as a 52 year old man who has been told to stretch more I’m delighted to have found this studio.
New Energy Yoga describes this beautiful studio perfectly. Every time I leave, I feel revitalised! Welcoming and calming, the studio is a beautiful space with plenty of blankets, blocks, and bolsters. It is perfect for beginners and for those with experience. The teachers are friendly, knowledgeable, and are able to offer modifications that support and/or challenge all abilities. New Energy Yoga, thank you for being a wonderful addition to Southampton!
Really enjoying the yoga classes at the new studio in Southampton. The studio itself is spacious and modern and the instructors are lovely and make me feel very welcome! The Vinyasa level 2 yoga class is perfect for me as someone who has done yoga for about a year, but I’m also looking forward to exploring more of the classes!
New Energy Yoga + 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 describe the studio atmosphere positively — recurring descriptors include "welcoming", "calming" and "no judgement". This kind of language pattern, particularly across multiple reviewers, tends to indicate a settled member community rather than a high-turnover commercial environment. If you're new to pilates and concerned about feeling out of place at your first class, this is the indicator most worth weighting. One recent member put it this way: "The studio is brand new, and all the staff are very genuine and welcoming." — David Marshall.
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.
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.
