Our Spring Term starts on Monday 8th January. You will find times and locations of classes on the Adults and Pilates pages. Half term is the week beginning Monday 19th February; the term ends on Thursday 28th March.

We realise that some of you may not want to return to class yet, so there are still 14 Pilates sessions available online, if you want to keep working at home. You will find links to them below.

Class times & locations:






*Due to building works taking place at the Town Hall, all September sessions will take place at THE SAWPITS CENTRE, Richmond Road, Towcester NN12 6EX.

Precautions   We are still required to keep records of everyone who comes to a class for track and tracing purposes, and there will have to be a maximum of 15 per class to maintain social distancing. If there is another class in the hall when you arrive, please wait in your car or the car park  (depending on the weather!) until they have left the building. Please enter the lobby one at a time and use the hand sanitizer before coming into the hall, observing social distance at all times.

Equipment  Please make sure that you bring all the equipment you need - mat, towel, stretch band or scarf, cushion or block (if required) and drinking water - so that numbers of items that are borrowed and will have to be re- sanitised is kept to the minimum. And please wear socks.

Payments   In order to keep cash handling to a minimum, please pay for classes online, if possible. If you don’t have Sylvie’s bank details please email a request for them. If you are going to use cash please try to bring the correct amount, £8.00, if you can. A limited amount of sanitized change will be available. You could also use the PayPal app on your phone, if you have it, to make a payment to sylvie@sylvieessame.co.uk
