Mat Pilates
in Bournemouth
Strengthen, lengthen & tone - all on the mat
at Pilates with Lou
A quieter, more personal mat Pilates experience in Westbourne, with sessions that are intentionally small, allowing me to give individual attention and tailor each class to each person.
I’d love to help you on your Pilates journey...

Welcome to Pilates with Lou
Welcome to Pilates with Lou, my calm and welcoming mat Pilates studio based in Branksome Wood Road near Westbourne, Bournemouth - offering small group and 1:1 sessions. I can also offer 1:1's at your home in the local Bournemouth area.
Sessions are intentionally small and carefully guided, allowing time to understand your body, move with confidence and progress at a pace that feels right for you. Whether you are new to Pilates or returning after time away, you can expect clear instruction, reassurance and genuine care in every session.
I teach with warmth, clarity and an encouraging style. My focus is on helping you feel comfortable, supported and confident - never rushed or pushed.
Each session is adapted to suit your body and your goals, with careful attention to posture, alignment and controlled movement. Many clients tell me they feel listened to, at ease and more connected to their bodies after just a few sessions.

Choosing a Pilates teacher is a personal decision, and it’s important to feel comfortable, supported and confident in your choice.
