We opened the doors to the Pilates Studios at Lavant House on 24th June 2024. The studios are a collaborative journey shared between two Pilates businesses; Be:Poised Pilates Ltd and Pilates with Claire.
Gina (Be:Poised Pilates) and Claire (Pilates with Claire) have known each other since the early days of their Pilates teaching careers. Both share a commitment to high quality, client centred Pilates teaching.
The Lavant House Estate offers a unique opportunity to create a special place where the beauty and benefits of Pilates can be enjoyed by all of our clients. The spirit of collaboration is strong across the entire of the Lavant House Estate, and our studios are no different. Whilst our businesss remain separate you may see us both around at the studio. We work collaboratively and support each other in delivering workshops and events at the studio. You will always be assured of a welcoming smile whenever you see us.
Our Lavant House journey started in 2023 with a “crazy idea” in a beautiful location. Then followed many busy months of planning, preparing, measuring, taking deliveries, and getting ready for launch; ably assisted by the lovely ground team at Lavant House, fuelled by endless cups of tea at the Stables cafe, and challenged by the seemingly never ending rain!
We opened the studio doors in June 2024, and the studio has continued to grow and flourish. We now have a wonderful, supportive Pilates community within our studio and we would love to welcome you to be a part of it!
