Cancellation policy

I have had a few no shows recently and I understand that sometimes something happens super last minute so you cannot get in contact with me, but if this is not the case then please let me know!

Tuesday classes currently are fully booked with some people on the waiting list, so sending me an email ([email protected]) means I can make the space available for someone else to book on.

Thank you for understanding 🫶🏼

Class update below:

No Tuesday class on the 20th of October but there will be class on Thursday the 22nd of October.

Currently Thursday classes only go up to the 22nd of October. If they are successful in the next few weeks then they will continue.

Last week of classes for Christmas will be week commencing 14th of December, so the 15th and 17th (if Thursdays keep going).

Reminder Tuesday classes price will increase as of the 1st of September from £5 to £6. You are able to book in advance at the current price.

Thank you all for your support and showing up every week!

Pilates by Vanessa - Book Online Suitable for all levels, my classes combine the foundations of Joseph Pilates' original exercises with a contemporary style to build strength, flexibility, and confidence in movement. Expect a welcoming environment where you can move at your own pace and enjoy reconnecting with your body.

How I build up to the Pilates hundred in my all abilities class. Starting at beginner level (level 1) and offering the progressions to meet my clients needs. Aiming to do 10 rounds of breath

Level 1 - keeping feet planted on the mat. Lifting head, neck and shoulders away from the mat, maintaining the neutral pelvis position. Inhaling for 5 beats of the arms, exhaling for 5 beats of the arms. Head can return to the mat if any neck tension is felt

Level 2 - one leg in table top, swapping over half way through. Repeating the same breath pattern

Level 3 - legs in table top. Focusing on maintaining that neutral pelvis position

Level 4 - inhale as the legs are in table top. Exhale as they extend out at a 45 degree angle. Once again, focusing on maintaining the neutral pelvis and not allowing the lower back to arch

Level 5 - the full expression. Legs extended out on a 45 degree angle. If any arching is felt through lower back then lift the legs a little higher

It’s kinda chic…

Thanks to the interest and full Tuesday classes, I have decided to put on a Thursday class as well! Thursday classes are £6 and from the September Tuesday classes will also be £6. You can continue to book Tuesday classes at £5 until then. Both classes at Duston Community Centre 6-7pm, where there is free parking (woohoo). Open to all abilities and any questions, queries or concerns then please get in contact. Hopefully see you soon! P.s booking link in bio x

Firstly, I just want to say a huge thank you for all of your support since I launched Pilates by Vanessa. I honestly didn't expect the response I've had, and I'm so grateful to everyone who has attended classes, recommended them to friends, and helped build such a lovely community.

I'm excited to let you know that, due to demand, I'll be launching a new Thursday evening class, starting Thursday 27th August!

Thursday Class Details

📅 Thursdays
🕕 6:00–7:00pm
📍 Community Room 1, Duston Community Centre
💷 £6 per class

As Community Room 1 is a smaller space, places will be more limited, so booking in advance is recommended. https://getabooking.co.uk/pilates-by-vanessa

I'd also like to let you know about a small pricing update for the Tuesday class.

To thank everyone who has supported me from the beginning, the Tuesday class will remain £5 until 1st September. Any Tuesday bookings that have already been made, or are made before 1st September, will stay at £5.

From 1st September onwards, all Tuesday classes will be £6, bringing both weekly classes in line with one another.

Thank you again for your continued support—it really does mean so much. I can't wait to welcome both familiar and new faces to class, and I'm looking forward to seeing this little Pilates community continue to grow!

See you on the mat!
