Your Questions Answered
What can I expect from my first session?
Your first 1-2-1 session is an opportunity to introduce you to the full Pilates equipment. We will look at several assessment exercises to enable the instructor to gauge which pieces of equipment would suit you best. We will discuss your goals for Pilates and the ways in which Pilates can compliment your daily life and activities.
Over the following weeks, we will develop your movement vocabulary on the equipment and combine your studio equipment sessions with home exercises to give you the best possible Pilates experience.
How long is a session?
1-2-1s, 2-2-1s and group sessions are scheduled for 1 hour. In-studio sessions are 55 minutes and online sessions are 50 minutes.
How do I book?
Simply visit our booking page. You’ll find a handy “how to” section which will guide you through booking and paying for your sessions.
How do I pay?
Payments must be made in advance of your sessions. You can pay via the booking system or arrange payments by emailing bryony@thebridgepilatesstudio.co.uk
Can I attend group sessions?
Yes. At the Bridge Pilates Studio, group sessions are available for a maximum of three people.
Private group sessions can be booked at the cost of £65 a session which can be split between the members of the group.
What do I wear?
Please wear clothing that is comfortable to move in with some stretch such as leggings or jogging bottoms and a fitted top. You can either have bare feet or wear socks. We would recommend socks with grip on the bottom. These can be purchased at the studio.
Do I need to bring any equipment?
No additional equipment is essential, however, you may wish to purchase some small equipment which can be used in the classes and at home. Equipment can be purchased via the studio.
How often should I attend classes?
The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends that we exercise a minimum of three times a week. We would recommend a weekly class for maintaining a level of fitness. For improving physical fitness or strength, or recovery from injury, we would recommend attending more than one session a week; perhaps a combination of the equipment and mat based sessions.
