Pilates that builds from the foundation

All of our mat Pilates classes take place in the downstairs studio — a darker, more focused space designed for strength, control and precision.

Our classes range from beginner-friendly fundamentals to more dynamic, full-body sessions. Whether you're completely new or looking to build on an existing practice, there is a clear place to start.

We teach Pilates properly. That means attention to detail, an understanding of how the body works, and a focus on movement that actually transfers into everyday life.

If you're not sure where to begin, we’ll guide you.

What makes our Pilates different

We don’t rush through movements or chase intensity for the sake of it.

The focus is on doing the work properly — understanding how your body moves, building strength in a way that lasts, and developing control that carries into everything else you do.

You won’t get lost in the class. You’ll know what you’re working on and why.

    Beginners, those returning after a break, or anyone wanting to improve technique

    Still precise. Still controlled. Just with more physical challenge.

    Those with some Pilates experience or confident beginners

    Strength + Conditioning

    Functional strength that carries into real life.

    A strength-based class using bodyweight and resistance to build physical capability, improve movement quality and support long-term resilience.

    Not a circuit. Not a HIIT class. A considered approach to getting stronger.

    Anyone wanting to build strength alongside mobility and control

    Not suitable for:
    Acute injuries — please check before attending

  • People practicing yoga in a dimly lit studio, seated on black mats, with one man in a yellow shirt and black shorts stretching with a resistance band, and women behind him also on mats, some with green yoga balls nearby.

    Mobility + Stretch

    Move better. Feel better.

    A full session dedicated to mobility and flexibility — working through the joints and patterns most people neglect.

    This isn’t an afterthought or a cool-down. It’s structured, progressive work designed to improve how your body actually moves.

    Best for:
    Anyone feeling stiff, restricted or tight — particularly from desk work or training

    Not suitable for:
    Nobody — this is suitable for all

  • The Yoga Space is such a wonderful place to practice yoga (the views are breathtaking) and I would encourage anyone considering attending a class to go for it. I have been coming to the studio for almost two years and I am so grateful to be part of such a warm and welcoming community. I had very little yoga experience when I first started coming here and Dolores and her team have been so supportive in growing my confidence. Yoga has since become a huge part of my life and has helped me be a more calm, present and happier person. The Yoga Space cafe is also great and sell what must be the best cookies in the whole world x
