FAQs

What should I wear? As long as you are comfortable and can move easily, it doesn’t matter what you are wearing. You may warm up through the class, so it is worth considering layers that you can remove easily.

How many people will be in my class? We book a maximum of ten mums onto our postnatal classes to make sure you get plenty of individual tuition.

Do I have to buy a block of classes? We believe block bookings are the best way to ensure you really see the benefit of the sessions, so we only book this way. We don’t take drop-ins because we want to screen you fully before you start, so we can get to know your body and make sure that you get the most out of the classes. If you do miss a class, there may be a chance to make it up at another one of our classes within the same block. Please let us know with at least a week’s notice and we’ll do our best to fit you into another class on the timetable.

What will I need? You’ll need an exercise mat and some water along with several pieces of equipment – a spiky massage ball, a TheraBand and a ‘magic’ fascial release ball. If you don’t already own these items, you have the option of adding our £25 Equipment Bundle to your order when you book.

Can I bring my baby? Yes, babies are very welcome – but this mum and baby Pilates class is all about you. You’re welcome to get childcare and enjoy the class alone if you prefer. If you do have your baby with you, they shouldn’t be involved in any of the exercises.
