Feeling stiff, sore and low on energy? Pilates can help you feel better without the intensity!
If you’re over 40, “exercise” often comes with a list of conditions. Perhaps you’re managing Osteopenia or Arthritis in your knees. Maybe you’ve got plantar faciatis, lingering disc issues, or bursitis that’s finally starting to behave.
You might walk for miles or have a high-pressure job, but you’ve realised that “just keeping active” isn’t enough anymore.
You know you need to move. You tried the gym (and hated it). You tried the “video” Reformer classes (and felt like a number). You’re not looking for a “crop top, scrunch bum Instagram” vibe, you’re looking for a place that understands that at 40+, “fitness” means freedom.
Most people think Pilates is just a bed with some springs. At Kensho, we use the full spectrum of Joseph Pilates’ original vision to help you move without pain and get stronger.
Whether it’s Matwork, the Wunda Chair, the Cadillac, or our Springboards, we choose the right tool for your specific “niggles.” We sit right in the sweet spot between “clinical rehab” and “fitness fad.”
What you can expect:
Real Teachers: Fully trained experts who recognise that every body is different.
Purpose-Driven Movement: We focus on bone strengthening, balance, and gait, the things that actually help you get out of the car or down the stairs with ease.
Zero Judgement: No one cares what you’re wearing or if you’re doing a different version of an exercise. We’re all here to feel better, not just “look” a certain way.
At Kensho, you aren’t just a body on a mat. You’re part of a thriving community of real people who understand that a bit of laughter is the best way to engage your deep core.
We don’t just stay within the four walls of the studio. We’re a social bunch who believe movement should be energising, not exhausting. When you join us, you’re joining:
Monthly Studio Challenges: From daily Pilates streaks to gait-strengthening goals.
Events & Workshops: Everything from vision board workshops to foot and gait masterclasses.
Social Connection: Monthly walks followed by the mandatory brunch.
After years of high-impact exercise, I found Pilates and immediately fell in love. It showed me that strength and empowerment don’t have to come from heavy weights or intense strain—it can be achieved with control, precision, and thoughtful movement.
I’m passionate about sharing this with my clients, especially women over 40 who want to feel strong, confident, and pain-free as they age. My goal is to help you build resilience and feel amazing in your body.
At Kensho, it’s not just about fitness—it’s about finding joy in movement and awakening your body, mind, and spirit. I want to help you discover your strength, unlock new levels of flexibility and mobility, and feel empowered in every area of your life.
Welcome! We love working with beginners. Every journey at our studio begins with the Revive Pilates Trial Pack. This is designed specifically to bridge the gap between never tried it to I can see how this will change my life
Step 1: Your Initial Consultation Before jumping into a group, you’ll have a 1-on-1 or 1-on-2 session. We’ll walk you through the basics, assess your movement, and give you personalised tips so you feel ready for the equipment.
Step 2: Your Semi-Private Classes After your consultation, you’ll attend two small-group classes. We recommend completing these within two weeks of your first session so you can truly feel the “Pilates difference” in your body.
Absolutely. Pilates is a powerful tool for rehabilitation and whole-body care. To ensure your safety and get you on the right track, we follow a careful three-step process:
Comprehensive Pre-Screening: Once you purchase your Revive Pilates Trial Pack, you will receive a detailed health questionnaire. This allows us to understand your medical history and any specific concerns before you even step into the studio.
Initial Consultation: This mandatory session is where we assess your movement patterns and discuss your injury in depth.
Tailored Progression: Depending on your needs, we may recommend Private Sessions for focused recovery before you transition into our small group classes.
I highly recommend private sessions for pregnancy. Your health and the health of your baby is of utmost importance. Your body will need different things throughout each stage of your pregnancy and your needs on the day will be safely and effectively addressed in these sessions.
Bring clean socks, a towel and a water bottle to keep you hydrated during your session.
Comfortable clothes that you can move easily in – your regular gym gear is ideal.
Yes, there is a car park and plenty of on-street parking.
There is a toilet and somewhere for you to change, filtered water is available and we can change the temperature to suit your needs.
“Pilates is complete coordination of body, mind and spirit.”
