Do I need any prior Pilates experience to join a Reformer class?
Not at all. Reformer Pilates classes are suitable for beginners as well as seasoned practitioners. Our instructors tailor exercises to accommodate all fitness levels, making sure you feel comfortable while still being challenged.
What should I bring?
Wear comfortable clothing, grip socks are recommended
I want to come along and try a class at Core Studio. Where do I start and how do I book?
We have small classes and experienced qualified instructors, so newbies are welcome in any of our classes. However, if you want to try reformer and would prefer to start slowly, then book one of our restorative classes. You can book a class through our website via the booking page or contact us directly via email at info@studio-core.co.uk
How long are the classes?
Class times are 50 minutes. If it is your first class with us, please try to arrive 10 minutes early so we can get you to complete our health questionnaire (if you haven’t already done so online) and introduce you to your instructor.
What if I have any injuries?
You must tell your instructor at the start of the class if you have an injury. The instructor will then be able to keep a closer eye on you and make modifications where necessary. If you have an injury, please consult with a medical professional before attending your class at Studio Core
Do you offer private sessions?
Yes, if you would prefer a one-to-one session with one of our instructors this can be arranged for you.
How long do I have to cancel?
Due to the demand for our classes and our small group setting we require 12 hours’ notice, anything under this timeframe will be marked as a late cancellation and will result in the loss of your class.
Do you operate a waiting list?
Yes. If a class is full, you can add yourself to the waiting list for the class. If a space becomes available, you will drop into the class and receive an email to say you have secured a place in the class. Once you have secured a place in the class, our usual cancellation policy will apply.
How soon postnatally can I attend a Reformer Pilates session?
Once you have had full clearance by your GP/medical practitioner or midwife and have no underlying post-birth conditions then you can return to exercise from 6-8 weeks after giving birth. If you have had a caesarean section, the minimum period is 12 weeks once you have received full medical clearance.
