Our friendly and approachable physiotherapists use their clinical expertise to get to know you and to support you throughout each session of every course. Courses run all over Oxfordshire, find a course near you.
Workplace Pilates Classes
We create bespoke physio led Pilates programmes in your workplace for one off events or as a regular part of your well being programme. Our physio team helps promote health and wellbeing and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal problems through fun and effective exercises for the mind and body.
Private Pilates Tuition
Private Pilates gives you the complete focus of our expert instructors. Working with you one-to-one is the fastest & most effective way to reach your rehab goals. Private physiotherapy led Pilates is ideal for those with more complex medical conditions, hypermobility, pain or for children.
Physiotherapy Treatment
Physiotherapy underpins all we do in Pilates, but exercise therapy is only a small part of what we can offer as physiotherapists. Our specialist team can see you for a thorough assessment and tailored treatment. We have expert musculoskeletal and women’s health physiotherapists on hand and ready to help with a range of conditions.
Pre-Class Introductions
Do you have pain? Or a complex health problem that might require a bit more support in class? Then a pre-class introduction is for you. These 30min 1:1 sessions allows your course physiotherapist time to get to know you before your course starts. Meet your physiotherapist and enjoy some focused 1:1 time to help you make the most of your sessions.
Online Pilates Classes
Now we can bring the physio to you at any time of the day or night! Live interactive classes via Zoom and personalised recorded sessions mean that shift work, children and geography do not need to be barriers to your goals. Much more effective than a DVD! Our online classes can be book on their own or as part of our in person memberships.

“I used to be very physically active but a long term illness left me feeling like I was wasting away. I was recommended Lauren at Popup Pilates by a friend and I am so glad I was. Lauren is an excellent and patient pilates tutor who brings her physiotherapy expertise to everything she does. In the year I’ve been having sessions with her my core strength has increased significantly and I feel more in control of my own health once more. She has allowed me to be active within my physical capabilities. I cannot recommend her enough.”
– Gunnar Roxen, Oxford
“I worried Pilates was just for women, you don’t often hear men talk about it. But it is tough! It has helped me with cycling and learn things about my body I never knew. Because the guys are all physios they know their stuff. “
– Mark
Postnatal, Lauren
“Lauren came highly recommended as a physiotherapist and I can see why. My stomach muscles have come back together, and my pelvic pain has gone.
At first I was really worried about joining a class when I felt so unfit but Lauren and the other Mums made me feel right at home. We had a giggle. It was nice to know I wasn’t on my own.
Lauren is a physio, but she also has her own baby, so she really does get it. She has been there too.
I have done Pilates with Pop up for years and so after I had my baby I was so pleased to find out I could come to Pilates with my baby. My baby also seems to like the class. She is happy lying watching what is going on and I have some mummy time.
I really benefit from the hands on. I tried to exercises with a DVD but I didn’t get it. Lauren adjusts my position and I can actually feel my stomach muscles again!
This has been the best exercise programme for my pelvic floor. I have been able to get back to running for the first time since my youngest was born.”
“Since my daughter I felt like my tummy was flabby and my back hurt. I tried running and weights but it didn’t get better. Pilates has really helped. My back pain has gone and I can wear a bikini again! Thank you!”
Lauren, small groups, 1:2
“My daughter’s are both hypermobile, and a physiotherapist suggests that Pilates might help the youngest with her hip pain we got in touch with Lauren. Both girls enjoy the sessions so much that I don’t even have to nag them to get ready! Lauren makes the sessions fun and keeps them focused.”
Events, Lauren, small groups
“Lauren ran a return to exercise workshop for me and my NCT group. It was reassuring to have an experienced physiotherapist give me clear advice on what I could do to get my pre-baby body back.
I have always loved exercise but after a difficult birth I was confused about when and how to start exercising again. The workshop Lauren did for us was super useful and fun too!”
Pregnancy, Lauren
“My pelvic pain had stopped me going to the gym but since starting Pilates I feel so much better. Lauren always adapts the exercises for me. Now I know where I was going wrong and have been able to go back to the gym without pain. Yay!
I am no longer dreading the rest of my pregnancy. My hip pain feels so much better and I know how to help it when it starts.
The exercises feel so gentle and relaxing, but I always know I am working! It is nice to feel I can still exercise, even when I am 38 weeks pregnant.”
