What should I wear?
Wear comfy, stretchy clothes and socks. Something like leggings or joggers with a t-shirt and sweat top would be fine. Layers are recommended so you can add / take off a layer as needed. Socks are a necessity for hygiene reasons. Grippy Pilates socks are highly recommended for both Matwork and Reformer. Please avoid bamboo, fluffy or running type socks as they can be very slippery on the mats / equipment. If you haven’t got grippy Pilates socks then plain cotton is a good choice. If you have long hair you will need to tie it back if you are attending a Reformer and Equipment class.

Parking
Pilates Space is in a busy working yard filled with businesses ranging from metal fabricators to art studios. There isn’t any parking in the yard and as it’s busy it is advisable not to drive into the yard to look round. There is plenty of parking space available in the nearby streets of Warwick St and Greengate Lane. Please park there and walk through. The yard is lit in the evening.

Do you do drop in classes?
No. Classes are paid monthly and pre- booked. This keeps the level of instruction and progression high as classes are planned in advance for the individuals within that class.
