Pop Up Pilates is the perfect place for anyone whose body needs a little more attention. If you want to get stronger and be kind to yourself, this is the place for you. The fantastic instructors will make sure that your needs are met, whatever they may be, whatever level you are in.
I have been practicing with Pop Up Pilates for more than 5 years now and I could not ask for more.

As I have got older, it has become more problematic to find time for regular exercise. These classes are ideal for helping keep my body exercised with care.

David

After a year with Pop-Up Pilates, my lower back pain has virtually disappeared. The physio is so knowledgeable that adjusts all the exercises according to my needs and what feels comfortable to me. But also provides different levels of difficulty if I am in the mood of challenging myself. Highly recommend Pop-Up Pilates to anyone.
