Welcome to our studio.
We are a Romana's Pilates studio, teaching Joseph Pilates’ original work.
If you are looking to reap the benefits of better posture, a stronger core and supported spine, a more toned body, and an improved sense of overall well-being, we invite you to join us!
Studio
In the Studio the most commonly recognised piece of Pilates equipment is the Reformer, but Joseph Pilates invented a wide range of equipment. The large ground floor studio has high quality handmade Reformers, Tower, Cadillac (Trapeze), Wunda Chair, Electric (High) Chair, Baby Chair, Ladder Barrel, High Mats & Wall Units, Wall Ladder, Spine Corrector, Half Barrel, Ped-i-Pul, all classical in origin, from Purist Pilates, Gratz and Legacy and many other smaller pieces. Each piece was specifically designed by Joseph Pilates with a specific purpose in mind: to help the body get fitter, stronger or to support and heal.
The Studio relocated in September 2021 to Crescent Court after almost 12 years at the Old Armoury. We offer Private, Duet and small equipment sessions with a max of 4 people.
"The Pilates Method teaches you to be in control of your body and not at its mercy..."

“I have been coming to Pure Pilates Ilkley every week for over 12 years. Most of us are long term supporters here!
Kirstin is much more than the highly qualified and experienced Romana Pilates instructor her credentials would lead you to imagine. She is an intuitive, intelligent and unique guide who will fix, form and facilitate your body to achieve whatever goal you visit her for.
I have seen her rehabilitate injuries, alter physiques, counsel those struggling and push people to their limits!
This kind of Pilates isn’t just about strengthening your core or isolating and working every muscle group, it is a family. We all support each other and you will be welcomed and nurtured.”
Alix Rhodes
“Kirstin’s passion for her work and her attention to detail in each of our sessions is second to none. The sessions are challenging yet enjoyable and her enthusiasm only encourages you to be the best you can possibly be. A professional footballers career is short lived and I know for certain that the sessions we do together will allow me to play for longer than I could have ever imagined.”
