Frequently asked questions

Please find below the answers to some of the commonly asked questions.
If you can't find your answer here do get in touch.
Is a Reformer Pilates practice right for you?
The short answer is yes! Reformer Pilates can help improve and maintain overall physical fitness – leading to greater strength, flexibility and balance, which in turn improve posture, movement and mental health. Reformer Pilates should form a key component to any person wanting to improve their overall fitness.

Benefits of a Reformer Pilates Practice:
  • Increased wellness and vitality. Pilates is not just a physical discipline. A Pilates practice promotes mindfulness and correct breathing patterns which will reduce stress, increase vitality and overall wellness.
  • Improved Strength and muscle tone. With so many exercises possible and the variable resistance of the springs. Practising Pilates will make you stronger, more durable, looking leaner and definitely fitter.
  • Low impact but highly effective. No pounding on you joints but yet challenging enough to build some serious fitness.
Conditions that can be helped by a Pilates practice:
  • Low back pain. In a lot of cases, the pain originates from weak abdominal and poor posture. Your Pilates practice addresses both and should provide you with some drug free relief.
  • Scoliosis. Strengthening your core with provide more stability to your spine, possibly regress the condition, but surely help keep the condition under control.
  • And many more such as Sciatica, Kyphosis, Lordosis, fixing muscle imbalances and improving posture.​

Which Class should I book into?
Pilates fundamental workshop: 
If you're new to Pilates or looking to solidify your foundation, we highly recommend our Pilates Fundamentals Workshop. This workshop is available as an on-demand course and is also offered in greater depth during our monthly in-studio sessions. You'll explore core principles like breath control, alignment, and flow, with a focus on essential techniques such as lateral breathing and maintaining a neutral spine. Key exercises, including bridges, C-curves, and Reformer arm series, are clearly demonstrated and adaptable for all levels. You'll also learn how to modify exercises using spring resistance, making Pilates both accessible and challenging. The in-studio version concludes with a 30-minute Reformer session, putting everything you've learned into practice.

Beginner: 
If you are new to Pilates, have not exercised in a long time or have medical considerations, this is the class for you. We will teach you how to use the reformer and perform the basic movements. These are our slowest classes but as with all our classes we keep them challenging. We recommend doing as many of these as required until you feel you are ready for more challenge.

All levels (Beginner + Intermediate):
These are usually scheduled in our slowest times and all levels are welcome. The instructor will accommodate all students by offering alternatives and modifications to exercises as required. This class is suitable for both beginners and intermediates. If you are new to the studio and do have medical considerations, we recommend attending the beginner classes.

Speciality classes (Core Sculpt, Stretch and Strength):
These classes are suitable to all levels but we recommend having attended a minimum of three classes before jumping into one. They focus on a specific area/goal and are a great way to add challenge and variety to your practice.

What should I wear
  • You should wear comfortable active wear. As alignment is key, form fitting is preferred as it provides instructor with a better visual assessment of your form.
  • You are also required to wear grip socks. These can be purchased on Ebay or Amazon. We have a selection to purchase in studio for £15 (cash)

Which Package Should I buy?
At Flowing Body Pilates we like to provide many options to reflect the different needs of the many individuals that make up our clientele. With the greater choice however, comes a greater difficulty in accessing which package is best. We will attempt to give you an easy way to make that decision based on how often you wish to attend the studio in a week. Please note the validity of the block purchased as the range from 1 to 6 months.

Pregnancy Pilates
We do not currently offer prenatal classes. Should the demand increase we would be happy to add such a class to the schedule.
We require the following to take you on:
  • Physician's approval
  • You should be less than 6 months pregnant. We can train you much further than that but we cannot have you start the new fitness regimen after that date.
Should you qualify, the next step will be to attend a beginner class or take a private with one of our instructors.
Please make sure you let the instructor know you are pregnant! Updates on how far you are in your pregnancy will help select the best modifications for you.​
