New Reformer Pilates studio starts up in Truro

Wednesday 5th June, 2024

New Wave Pilates, a dynamic Reformer Pilates studio based in Newham, has opened its doors. The studio offers Reformer Pilates classes, a type of Pilates which uses a reformer machine to add resistance to exercises.

Chris Kielb who started up New Wave Pilates took up Reformer Pilates after suffering a back injury which resulted in seven months off work. After becoming a regular, he went from living on painkillers to only having occasional back pain. He’s now been teaching Reformer Pilates for eight years and is bringing its benefits to Truro.

Chris said: “I’ve always loved fitness and the ability it has to improve people’s lives. I wanted to offer classes to help people stay as active as possible, for as long as possible, and have fun doing it.

“For me, as an older parent over 40, I want to stay active for as long as possible. That is why I’ve aimed it at over 40s because I know what it’s like to not be able to exercise, or eat, like I used to. That said, my studio is a welcoming environment for people of all ages to enjoy Reformer Pilates.”

Although targeted towards helping over 40s, the classes are open to all ages and abilities. The exercises help to build strength, balance and stability to help you look, move and feel better.

“Even if people don’t carry on with Reformer Pilates, I want to help them feel comfortable to try something new and start, or enhance, their fitness journey.”

Classes run from Monday to Saturday each week and are all mixed ability. You can sign up for a class by visiting www.newwavepilates.co.uk and take advantage of the introduction offer of three classes for £30. If you have any questions you can call Chris on 07565 933272.
