Common Questions

Studio & Classes FAQs

For class specific FAQs please see the relevant page. If you have a question not answered here please get in touch.

Where can I park?

There is a car park at the studio with limited spaces. There is also plenty of safe on-street parking in the vicinity – please be mindful of our residential neighbours and park considerately. We also have bike racks if you prefer to cycle.

Are there changing and shower facilities?

Yes – we have a changing room, shower room and toilet facilities at the studio. We recommend arriving ready to exercise where possible, but the facilities are there if you need them.

What should I wear?

Wear something comfortable to exercise in. For yoga and Pilates, slightly tighter fitting clothing is helpful as it allows the instructor to see how you are moving, but loose clothing is absolutely fine if you prefer.

How do I book a class?

You can book classes online on the individual class pages. You can also book by calling us on 01275 818303. Classes can be booked up to three months in advance.

The studio is at 81 Papermill Gardens, Portishead BS20 7RL – opposite Screwfix. It is about a mile from our main clinic on Slade Road. Use the Get Directions button below for Google Maps navigation.

Do I need to bring anything?

We provide mats and equipment for most classes. A water bottle is always a good idea. Check the individual class page for anything specific you might need to bring.
