Awaken Pilates specialises in supporting women during pregnancy and postnatal recovery.
Clients attending during pregnancy or after childbirth must ensure they have appropriate medical clearance where necessary.
While we take every precaution to ensure safe programming, prenatal and postnatal exercise carries inherent physical considerations. By attending, you acknowledge and accept responsibility for your participation.

All sessions must be booked and paid for in advance via our booking system unless otherwise agreed.
Session pricing is available on our website. Awaken Pilates reserves the right to amend pricing at any time.

We operate a 24-hour cancellation policy in respect of our instructors’ time and the limited availability of our studio.
Refunds are not offered.
