Welcome To Bespoke Pilates Studio

Back in October '09 my lower back went into a hugely painful spasm while in the USA. Two weeks and 13 visits to an excellent Chiropractor, he reckoned I would be able to fly or rather sit for 7 hours to get home. On arrival here I found another great Chiropractor who recommended Pilates as an excellent way to strengthen the lower back area. I searched the WWW and found The Bespoke Pilates Studio nearby.... Being a bloke I was very apprehensive about going! I had always thought it a real girly thing! I need never have worried...I love the classes, the teachers, the staff and the facilities and know that Pilates HAS definitely worked for me. Now almost 17 months later I look forward to each and every class.

I have been a member of Bespoke Pilates studio since it opened five years ago and was taught by Cheralyn for several years prior to this. Before becoming a member at Bespoke I tried several different forms of Pilates but none of them measured up to the Stott Pilates which is taught here. Cheralyn and her team of instructors at Bespoke are friendly, professional and highly qualified. The classes are small and well structured, with just the right balance of friendliness and hard work. I continue to be amazed that after so many years I still have so much to learn and perfect. The instructors continually update their knowledge & training skills and pass it on to the students; all abilities are taught precisely with attention paid to any injuries or problems. Classes are never stale and students are urged to perfect techniques in line with their capabilities.

I would hate to have to give up Pilates as it has become part of my life style; my fitness, core strength and flexibility have improved and my back problems have been resolved through Stott Pilates. I would not hesitate in recommending the studio to new students who are considering trying Pilates for the first time or to experts who have practised for years - everyone is made to feel very welcome.

I joined the Bespoke pilates studio after my second baby and only wished I'd done sooner!

One of my main reasons for joining bespoke was to improve my posture, I am so much more aware now of my posture and not only has it improved, but so has my overall body confidence.

Having now done both mat work and reformer classes, I've noticed a big improvement to the tone of my core muscles, I've never achieved this before through gym work alone.

I've really enjoyed the classes here, it's relaxed and fun despite the hard work!

When I first thought of joining Bespoke I was worried that I would be the only "fat" granny and that everyone else would be young, super fit and slim! However I plucked up courage and went along to an initial mat work class, and I am so glad that I did. The instructors were very friendly and good at assessing everyone's individual weaknesses, and after a few sessions they recommended that I try the reformer class, which has proved life changing for me. I lost weight and despite having arthritis in my spine I found my quality of life changed out of all recognition.With such small classes and personal attention I am now so much more supple, stronger and move faster. I'm the fittest I have been for many a long year and I would recommend the Bespoke Studio wholeheartedly. To anyone considering coming along I would say give it a go, you have nothing to loose and everything to gain!
