Our Story
Studio Core wasn’t something I planned for years or dreamed up in a boardroom. It came from real life, the kind so many of us are living. A demanding job, two kids, a dog, a house to run… and somewhere in the middle of it all, I realised I’d completely stopped making time for myself.
That’s when I found Reformer Pilates, and it changed everything.
For 50 minutes, I wasn’t thinking about deadlines, what to cook for dinner, or the never-ending to-do list. I was moving, breathing, reconnecting with my body and my mind. It quickly became the part of my week I looked forward to most.
Before long, I realised it wasn’t just something I loved but something I really wanted to share.
So I left my corporate job and opened Studio Core, creating a calm, welcoming space where you can leave the outside world at the door and focus on yourself for a while.
Whether you’re completely new to Reformer or already hooked, my hope is that every session leaves you feeling stronger in your body and calmer in your mind.
What is Reformer Pilates?
The reformer is a remarkable piece of equipment with a fascinating history, originally developed by Joseph Pilates to rehabilitate soldiers after World War One. Using a sliding carriage, springs, ropes and pulleys, it delivers a full-body, low-impact workout that works for every fitness level. The resistance is fully adjustable, so whether you’re completely new to Pilates or a seasoned regular, the reformer meets you exactly where you are.
