Jules Hardman Pilates
Expertly Taught Pilates in Alderley Edge
Build core strength, better posture, balance and flexibility from the inside out - in a calm, welcoming studio in the heart of Alderley Edge. Every class is small, friendly and carefully graded from complete beginner to advanced, so you progress safely at your own pace under expert, personal guidance.
Why choose Pilates in Alderley Edge with Jules
Pilates is a body-conditioning method that works differently to any other form of exercise. Developed by Joseph Pilates (1880–1967), it targets the deep postural muscles to build strength from the inside out, rectify muscle imbalance and improve the quality of every movement – the perfect balance between strength and flexibility.
What makes Pilates in Alderley Edge with Jules different is the structure. Classes are never mixed-ability drop-ins. Instead, you are placed alongside people at your exact level, in a permanent weekly slot, guided by a teacher who genuinely knows your body and can challenge it safely. That consistency is what turns Pilates from an occasional workout into lasting change.
- Small, friendly groups - never crowded, never rushed
- Strictly graded levels - beginner to advanced, so you're always well matched
- Body Control Pilates trained - a recognised benchmark for safe, effective teaching
- In-studio in Alderley Edge and live online via Zoom
Meet Jules
Jules Hardman is a fully qualified Body Control Pilates teacher, having trained with the largest professional Pilates organisation outside the USA.
She first discovered Pilates in 2001 while working as a fashion art director – long hours at a desk, frequent long-haul flights and hotel stays – and found it transformed her posture, flexibility and wellbeing. She qualified as a teacher in September 2010 and has been teaching in Alderley Edge ever since.
Body Control Pilates Association is one of the world’s most recognised and respected Pilates organisations, training teachers since 1996 and are known for pioneering the development of group matwork Pilates in the UK and beyond. They are currently the only UK training provider to offer a course that meets the requirements of both the flagship Society for the Pilates Method standard and the existing ‘Level 3 Pilates‘ .
Classes For Every Stage
Jules teaches a wide range of Pilates classes in Alderley Edge & Wilmslow. From Beginners to Advanced and High Intensity Power Pilates group classes, private lessons and Pilates for sports, workshops for Horse riders, Racquet sports, Skiing, Running, Cycling and Golf.
From gentle beginner foundations to dynamic High Intensity Power Pilates, there’s a carefully graded class to match where you are today – mat-based and using small apparatus such as balls, bands, toning circles and foam rollers to support and challenge you.
Private Pilates Classes Designed For You
If you prefer to work on a one-to-one basis or a ‘duet session’ (one-to-two) with a friend, then Private Sessions are for you. Both the session format and the exercises given are tailored to suit your needs and objectives. These sessions allow for greater progression and development and are a must for anyone requiring that individual attention.
Simple Monthly Membership
Studio access is arranged through structured monthly memberships from £48 per month, so your weekly place is always reserved and your progress is properly supported. Every journey begins with a personal consultation, a 6-week beginner course, or a one-off taster session so you start in exactly the right class.
