Small, friendly reformer Pilates classes in my converted stable studio, four miles from Taunton. Clear options for every level, beginners very welcome, and £20 a class.
“The classes are small, deeply supportive, and Helen is a brilliant instructor.”
Every class, every week, with live spaces. Small groups of up to 4, £20 a class, open to all levels, with options to make each move gentler or harder. Pick a date and book your reformer.
A single class is £20. Coming most weeks? Buy a pack and use it on any reformer Pilates class, any day.
Every gift comes with a printable gift certificate and a code, ready to wrap or pop in a card.
My classes are small groups on premium reformer beds, with upbeat coaching, great music and a friendly, no-ego vibe. Sessions are smart and flowing, and they build strength, mobility and confidence a little more each week.
Every move comes with clear options, so you always feel challenged but never out of your depth. They're for the brand new and the already obsessed, and everyone in between.
You don't need to have done Pilates before. I give options throughout, so the same class works whether it's your first or your fiftieth.
Start with the gentlest options. I'll show you how the springs work and keep an eye on your form all the way through.
Returning after a break or an injury? We'll start with a health form and a chat, then choose options that feel safe for you.
Add springs, add range, slow it right down. There's always a harder option waiting when you want it.
Every class on the timetable is open to all levels. If you're under the care of a GP or physiotherapist, check with them before you start.
Arrive in good time so we can say hello and get you settled. Park by the big green barn. Disabled parking is available.
Fill in my short health form so I know about any injuries or conditions before we start.
Comfortable clothes you can move in and a bottle of water. Please bring your own Pilates grip socks.
I'll show you how the bed, straps and springs work before we begin. Elton will probably come to say hello too.
If you are a complete beginner, please don't hesitate to book. The classes are small, deeply supportive, and Helen is a brilliant instructor.
Yes. Every class has clear options, and the springs can make each movement gentler or harder. If you'd like to learn the reformer on your own first, a 1:1 session is a lovely way to start.
Classes are small, so I can keep an eye on everyone and help you with your form. There are never more than 4 people in a class.
Classes currently run on Mondays 9am, Tuesdays 6pm, Wednesdays 12pm, Fridays 9am and Fridays 1pm, and each one lasts 45 minutes. The timetable shows the next dates and how many spaces are left.
£20 per class, or save with a class pack: 5 classes for £90 or 10 for £170. A private 1:1 reformer session is £45. See class packs and gifts
Yes. Reformer Pilates is low impact, but the springs build strength through your whole body, along with mobility and control. If you're looking for fitness classes near Taunton that are kind to your joints, it's a lovely place to start.
My studio is at Thornfalcon Winery & Press, Manor Farm, Thornfalcon TA3 5NP. It's four miles east of Taunton town centre, about 10 minutes' drive, just off the A358 and minutes from junction 25 of the M5.
Often, yes. You'll fill in a health form first and we'll talk about what you need. Sometimes a few 1:1 sessions are the better place to start. If you're under the care of a GP or physiotherapist, check with them first.
You can reschedule a class if you give at least 48 hours’ notice. Classes cancelled with less than 48 hours’ notice, and no-shows, aren’t refunded. There are only a few reformer beds, so please let me know as early as you can if you can’t make it.
Choose a class that suits your week, or start with a 1:1 session if you'd like to learn the reformer first.
