My wife and I are new to Pilates and Tatiana has been a great teacher. She ably teaches a mixed ability class, making everyone feel comfortable and supported, and provides adaptations to exercises when individual circumstances demand it. We feel we are making progress with our mobility and core strength. Thank you Tatiana!
Tatiana is a fantastic Pilates teacher! I’ve been doing mat Pilates with her for over a year and I’ve recently started her reformer class as well and I absolutely love both! I have high praise for her - she’s very knowledgeable, is aware of each individuals’ physical situation and ensures adaptions where needed and she’s very mindful about approaching the exercise correctly so you get the most out of it but safely!
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate Tatiana classes . She's not only incredibly lovely and kind, but also such a competent and professional instructor. It’s clear she really know what she's doing, and I always feel like I’m in great hands with her. She have a great way of knowing exactly what each person needs, and that makes every session feel so personalized and effective. Thank you for creating such a positive and motivating space! Teresa
Pilates with Tatiana 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: "My wife and I are new to Pilates and Tatiana has been a great teacher." — Richard Brown.
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.
