About Northern Pilates

I have always enjoyed Zoe’s lessons. I thoroughly enjoyed the late Monday beginners class as I found it relaxing and not too taxing at the end of a long day, so it was perfect. In contrast I am definitely feeling the benefit of the Wednesday morning mixed ability class as I’m aware that I need to increase my strength.

We are really loving the classes and it is a massive help to for my husbands back, he is really feeling the difference. I think he would come everyday if he could fit it in. I enjoy the classes so much that I come twice a week. I find it very good and Zoe is a super teacher.

I love coming to Pilates! Monday nights is like therapy. I like to support a small business and I think the number of people in the classes speaks volumes, Zoe has such a lovely voice listening to it is like sinking into a warm bath and I feel that, like me, all the others in the class feel a sense of loyalty to her.

The Monday sessions are great and varied, which is always a good thing as you never know what is coming so can never be bored. The stretches are great, my back seems to be improving which is a bonus.

Love Zoe’s sessions; she makes it all look so effortless, but with all that variety I know it can't be! I feel she strikes a great balance in the exercises between the various body parts and the corrections are always delivered sensitively. Finally, a little humour always goes a long way!

Personally I love it when we have equipment such as the hogs, bands, rollers, spiky balls etc. I love coming to my Tuesday morning class. The exercises are always varied and fun. For me everything is just right and I always feel great afterwards, and energised for the day.

Great classes! Really like it that you keep it moving through the class without too much standing around, also like it that you push us a bit, most of all I like it that Zoe appears to be having a good time doing this stuff it creates a good feeling.

Quite honestly, I never want to miss Zoe’s classes. I really am quite stiff for a couple of days after class but am seeing overall benefits.

I love my Monday class. It is challenging but that is how it should be. No complaints form me, even if you hear me huffing and puffing on the night! If I ever get more time, I would love to come to more classes each week!

I'm really enjoying the new format Barre class - it's definitely challenging, but I'm sure I'm benefiting from it. Not too sore the next day either (I must be working hard enough !!)

I’m really happy with the class: the room is clean, warm, spacious and the crowd is friendly. I find many of the exercises challenging. However, it’s good for me to push myself and is in no way a complaint. I wish I had the time and energy to attend twice a week. I’m definitely benefiting from pushing myself and I don’t feel out of place because, thanks to Zoe the class is very relaxed and non threatening. Zoe very knowledgeable, approachable and welcoming

I love Zoe’s classes! I feel Zoe gives us the tools to keep ourselves mobile and strong. I can definitely feel the benefit. I was originally advised by a physio to do pilates because I have a lower back problem which was getting worse. I have only been coming to Zoe’s classes for a few months but I feel much stronger already, my back has improved and I expect it to continue to improve.

I can honestly say am loving all the classes I attend but especially Barre. This is my absolute fave. Even though it may not seem like it am loving the cardio workout at the beginning. I don’t think we’ve done anything I don’t like. Quite honestly, I never want to miss Zoe’s classes. I really am quite stiff for a couple of days after class but am seeing overall benefits.

I love Zoe’s classes mainly because she pushes me and my body and because no two classes are ever the same! In a good way! I like to feel I have been to a class and I love the new vibe to Friday night classes (aerobic grapevines n all).... Having been to a variety of Zoe’s classes during the week I am also able to ‘pick’ what I feel I want that particular week.......if I need a good peaceful stretch or more aerobic/active stretch.

Zoe is a very talented teacher of Pilates who clearly understands exactly how much the body can be strengthened and encouraged to be more reliable and flexible. She has the ability to help you achieve things you never thought possible! She is also treats everyone as an individual according to what they can be expected to achieve and she gives lots of praise. Her classes are always fun and her boundless energy and enthusiasm are inspirational.

I have attended Zoe’s mum and baby classes since my little one was tiny. She is great with the babies and really knows what she is doing. Really enjoy her classes.

The Mum and baby classes on Fridays are fab. I didn’t have any experience of doing Pilates before and Zoe gives lots of options from beginner to more advanced. Classes are really relaxed so you can see to babies as and when you need.
Thanks for setting it up Zoe!

Well saying I loved it may not be TOTALLY accurate all of the time lol but I really cannot recommend Zoe's classes high enough. She is always looking for new ways to challenge us & move us on with our fitness whilst always being aware of people's own limitations & fitness levels. I am now doing 2 of Zoe's classes every week (Pilates & Barre) & am seeing major benefits in terms of strength & flexibility.

I had my first one to one Reformer Pilates with Zoe yesterday. I was a bit nervous as I have never done Pilates before. Zoe made me feel at ease and is an excellent Instructor. I suffer with lower back pain and this morning is the first time I got out of bed without being in agony. Really enjoyed the session.

Zoe’s Mum and baby classes are great. They have really helped get my figure back after an emergency C section in February. I’m soon to start back at work and I’m sad for my Friday classes to be coming to an end but thankfully Zoe has classes all week esp in the evening so I have no excuse! Easy enough for beginners but challenging enough for more advanced. Would definitely recommend.
