Our Clients Say
"I have been attending Bodyworks-Pilates for many years, most recently the Pilates Reformer classes. What sets Russ and Helen's classes apart from others I have attended at gyms over the years is the personal attention they give to help you improve your technique and get the most out of every class. Their knowledge, as far as I am concerned, is unmatched."

Catherine Strickland
"Bodywork-Pilates deliver excellent, professional service. I have been attending classes, both in a studio and, more recently, online, for many years and feel the benefit constantly. I would totally recommend them."
Maggie Allen
"I have been attending these classes for many years it has helped me through many injuries over the years better than physiotherapy. As you age these classes keep you fit and flexible. Very gratefully to Russ and Helen."
Emma Stringfellow
"Every class and retreat BP provide is thoughtfully created to give their clients the best possible outcome and experience. Helen has guided me through post chemo recovery and now into strength flexibility and wild swimming! Would be lost without Bodywork-Pilates."
Jane Jackson
"I've just returned from a winter yoga retreat organised by Helen and Russ from Bodywork-Pilates. There is so much thought and planning that goes into the weekends and they never fail to make it interesting, challenging but also fun. It was held at the Loretto centre in Llandudno which, whilst basic, provided everything that we needed - the food was plentiful and delicious.
The classes were a mix of yin, hatha, restorative yoga and soundbath; and pilates. Add into that a creative painting by numbers chatty session and an hour of line dancing :). It was such fun!!!
The evenings, after the yin/sound bath were spent in our social room - chatting and quizzing (a couple of drinks and some snacks). Obviously not everyone joined in - it's up to the individual to decide what they want to do.
Thank you both for such a wonderful and relaxing weekend. I'm looking forward to next year!"
Sue Lane
"I can only give Bodywork- Pilates Ltd 5 stars?!
I would give them more than 5 stars. Very experienced teachers of Pilates who are very welcoming and approachable. The class exercises are varied and always enjoyable and of course beneficial!"
Tim Moss
"Helen is one of a kind. The Pilates classes and Chinese singling bow session rock. Do not hesitate to book on a class with Helen. We've been having Helen run our company Pilates session for 8 years. She's a lovely human to boot!"
