Margate Pilates Studio

Hidden away in Westgate-on-Sea, Cat, Neil and their team od teachers provide all types of Pilates classes all week long.

Our classes are about the method and the process each and every individual goes through to understand more. More about your self, more about the equipment, more about the method.

The relationship we have with our bodies will change over time, the exercise choice may change, but the method remains the same. 🙌🏼

Some of you have already nabbed your merch hot of the press!!

Hayley has been chief promoter (and Lesley one of our clients) of socks and bags.

We’re true advocates for barefoot in our studio, but in the colder months we totally understand the necessity for socks - our grippy socks are comfy and warm and so far, one size really does fit all!

Bags are £25
Socks £12

And as ever, don’t forget Gift Vouchers are available should you want to buy for someone, or hint for someone to buy you!!

Get in touch if you’d like to purchase.

We’re sure we’ll see you before, but have a wonderful festive break and look forward to another year of Pilates with you all

Cat, Neil, Hayley, Claire, Katy & the trainees x

Our studio is tucked away in The Town Hall Buildings in Westgate-on-Sea. Known for the Carlton Cinema, but tucked away upstairs is a little haven that we love calling home.

The building is so well cared for but the family that own it, and the function room is available for anyone to hire for events.

What do you think?

Having had back issues from an early age & 2 spinal operations in 2001 & 2003, a Physiotherapist recommended Pilates to Neil.

After a few sessions Neil’s back pain was almost gone, through sitting and standing with better posture and finding everyday tasks and movement so much easier. It worked so well that in 2004 Neil decided to train to become an Pilates teacher.

Neil trained with the Pilates Institute in 2004. Then in 2012, Neil spent four years studying with Karin Locher (2nd generation teacher) from Contrology-Pilates-Method Education to further his knowledge of the method.

When Neil’s not in the studio, he’s out on the golf course, watching the football or walking his dog Mabel.

For us, it all started with Mat classes. However the Mat comes as Joe’s “homework” to the equipment.

A great place to start but not necessarily the beginning, the mat exercises replicate those on the in the studio.

We tailor our mat classes to those in the class, bringing the studio work to a much more accessible class, but with reference to the studio work.

We currently only have 3 mat classes but with our trainees coming through there will likely be more in the pipeline soon.

Our Founders - Neil Smith & Cat Proudfoot

Cat first ever met Neil at Harrow Leisure Centre after a local physio suggested Pilates may help her back pain, this much at have been around 2007/8. Little did either of them know that this would lead to Cat training to be a Pilates teacher, let along them both meeting again in Margate in 2015.

By 2017 both of them were busy teaching in and around Margate and they came together to create Margate Pilates Studio under one roof. And the rest is history.

PS. Neil and Cat are not related 😂

Life for Margate Pilates Studio hasn’t always been in Westgate.

Around 2014/5, both Neil and Cat started teaching either on kitchen floors, (thanks to Sorrell ), Union Church and & on a Saturday morning all along side their current jobs in London & Folkestone. (We had forgotten how many of you played a role in the start the studio, thank you to you all!)

When the opportunity came in 2018 to take the upstairs space at in Margate Old Town, Neil and Cat clubbed together to create their first dedicated Pilates studio space. With mainly mat classes to begin and mixed apparatus glasses or 1:1’s.

We then moved to a larger space at Smiths Court Hotel up in Cliftonville and our selection of classes grew and we saw out Covid restrictions with even more classes available before in 2022 we moved our Studio to The Town Hall Buildings in Westgate-on-Sea.

We cannot believe how the studio has grown, purely organically and down to a lot of hard work, but also down to our clients at their commitment to their Pilates practice.

Hands up if you’ve been to all three studios 🤗🙌

It’s about time we reintroduced ourselves here at Margate Pilates Studio

We are a collective of Pilates teachers from different backgrounds and trainings but with one shared passion - The Pilates Method.

We’ve all come to Pilates in one way or another through an injury or discomfort in our body and we pride ourselves on helping our clients re-find balance. Whether that be pre or post surgery, everyday aches and pains or sporting injuries - Pilates can help any body.

What brought you to your first Pilates class?
