Pilates for Everyone

At The Little Pilates Company, we're passionate about making the magic of Pilates available to everyone.

We're committed to small, personal classes, led by friendly, enthusiastic and experienced teachers who are always on hand to provide help, support and encouragement.

We tailor our classes to suit everyone taking part – which means that whether you're a complete novice, or an experienced Pilates practitioner, you'll always get the session you need.

The Little Pilates Company was formed in January 2014 at our cosy little studio in Howard Street, close to the banks of the Tyne in the centre of North Shields.

Airy, light, and spacious, it's the ideal spot for Pilates. And over the years since we started, we've built a lovely community there – young and old, male and female, from absolute beginners through to Pilates veterans.

With the relaxation of lockdown rules, we're delighted to be back in our Howard Street home, and our little family is stronger than ever, with a regular calendar of face-to-face and online classes, zoom catch-ups and (weather permitting) outdoor riverside sessions.
