Best Reformer Pilates Studios in Richmond upon Thames (2026)
Last updated October 2026 · 47 studios listed
Richmond upon Thames has 47 places to do reformer Pilates, spread along the river rather than packed into one centre, so the page groups them by neighbourhood. Richmond itself, with Richmond Hill, Kew and the Sheens, is the biggest cluster at 16. Twickenham and East Twickenham add 10, Teddington 7 and Barnes 6, and each of those four has its own neighbourhood guide.
The mix leans small and specialist. Only 16 are dedicated reformer studios. Another 13 are Pilates studios teaching across the reformer, tower and other apparatus, and 13 more are private teachers or clinics working one-to-one. Of the five gyms and clubs, Third Space Richmond, The Lensbury and Nuffield Health Twickenham are for members only.
Outside the guide areas, Hampton Hill High Street has three studios, including the no-contract Reformer by Energie and Fitzen Pilates. St Margarets Road has the equipment and Gyrotonic studio Pilates Plus as well as St. M's Gym, and Pilates Circuit on Sheen Lane covers Mortlake.
