I went to one of Grace's retreat days and it was wonderful. Relaxing, thought provoking and just what I needed. Grace really knows her stuff. Highly recommend.

My children are 11 and 8 and I'd given up on the idea of recovering any kind of core strength I seemed to lose in pregnancy. After a horrible back injury, I started Pilates with Grace and within a couple of weeks I was beginning to notice a difference. Grace supports you to really connect to what's happening in your body, to notice things that make movement more conscious and eventually easier. I used to find Pilates incredibly difficult- too much to think about all at once! But in Grace's classes I don't feel pressure to be doing it right, I just focus on improving my connection to my body. I'm developing a real sense of strength physically and feeling mentally boosted by the experience too. Thank you Grace!

I attended Grace’s class for six months, and the results were incredible! I need to go back. Her knowledge, care, and expertise helped my whole body function with greater strength. She truly knows her stuff and takes the time to understand each participant and where they need to focus

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.

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.
