  • Yes! Our classes are designed for both beginners and those with more experience, so you can start at a level that feels right for you.

    If it’s your first time (or your first time in a while), we recommend starting with our Introduction class, it’s the perfect way to get familiar with the reformer and learn the foundational exercises that make up a Sollo class. From there, you’ll be ready to jump into any class on the timetable at your own pace.

  • There are lockers to store any belongings and you won’t need anything in the studio room except a water bottle + your grippy socks.

  • Any active wear is suitable, but we do recommend tighter clothes so you can keep check of your alignment in the mirrors. We also require gripped socks to be worn during class.

  • Reformer Pilates has surged in popularity in recent years and for good reason. It’s more than just a trend, it’s an incredibly effective, low-impact workout that strengthens, tones and improves mobility. While some of the hype is new, the method isn’t. Reformer Pilates has been a staple in fitness and rehabilitation for decades.

    At Studio Sollo, we’re making it more accessible than ever, so everyone can enjoy the benefits.

  • There are 6 spaces in each class.

  • We’d recommend 2 or 3 classes per week to feel the benefits quickly, but you’ll feel the impact of a class whenever you can fit one in.

  • Light injuries may be suitable depending on the area and stage of recovery. Please check with your doctor/physio first and email us before booking so we can advise whether the class is appropriate.

    For safety reasons, pregnant clients can only attend teacher-led classes.

    Our video-led and open sessions are not suitable during pregnancy, as they do not allow for real-time coaching, screening or individual modification.

    If you’re pregnant, please get in touch before booking so we can help you choose which class is suitable.

  • Open Sessions offer 45 minutes of reformer time for self-practice. Spaces are limited to 6 people, so if you’re training with a teacher, you’ll each have to book a space.
