Maidstone has two places for reformer Pilates, and they could hardly be more different. Maidstone Reformer Centre, on the second floor of Golden Boot Chambers on Gabriel's Hill, is the town centre's specialist apparatus studio, running small groups on the reformer, Wunda chair, tower and jumpboard. Out on The Green in Bearsted, Breathe + Release keeps its reformer work to one-to-ones, duets and trios with a focus on rehabilitation.
Most of the choice lies in the villages around the town, each about three miles out. Poise ReforME opened in Boxley in December 2025, Body Haus in East Farleigh mixes group reformer with heated mat classes, and Aligned Wellness in Aylesford puts reformer Pilates and osteopathy in the same building. Pilates with Catherine in Coxheath teaches reformer one-to-one.
Prices and offers are as published by each studio when we last checked – confirm on their website before booking.
