My husband and I have been having Reformer Pilates sessions with Steph for over 3 years and it’s the exercise highlight of our week! We’ve progressed so far under her careful, knowledgeable and professional guidance and honestly every session is unique - she keeps us interested and we explore new techniques and exercises all the time. Our flexibility and strength has really improved and we are total advocates.
I've been doing Pilates with Steph for a couple of years now both face to face and during lock-down have taken many online courses. Steph is a very diligent instructor taking the time to tailor a class to your needs and correct any poor technique that may damage your back or posture. I have an ongoing injury and I find the classes are very beneficial to enhancing my mobility and flexibility. As well as being worthwhile for posture and mobility, classes are fun and friendly. Highly recommended!
Steph is an excellent Pilates teacher who not only remembers the ailments of every participant and tailors the classes accordingly, but also keeps a very careful eye on each person in a class to guide them in making the right Pilates movements for their posture and body. She has a passion for Pilates and has helped us improve immeasurably in the small, studio 3 person classes.
The Core Pilates Studio 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. 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: "We’ve progressed so far under her careful, knowledgeable and professional guidance and honestly every session is unique - she keeps us interested and we explore new techniques and exercises all the…" — Nadine Miles.
