LP Pilates is a small reformer pilates studio at 54 Whitaker Road in Warkworth, north of Auckland. It is run by its owner and teacher, Lydia, who has taught Pilates for more than six years. The studio offers private sessions on the mat, reformer, tower, Cadillac and stability chair, as well as group reformer classes. The studio describes its classes as smaller and personal, and says Pilates is for everybody, with a welcoming space where people feel comfortable whatever their level.
Clients say the teacher gives close attention to each movement, and that she adjusts classes for different levels and injuries while still pushing them. One client who has been coming for two years says the changes to their fitness have been clear. Two men who started Pilates together say their backs and strength feel much better. Another describes the teacher as kind, supportive and approachable. The nearest other pilates studio is Studio Pilates International Warkworth, 0.7 km away. Of the two other studios within one kilometre with ten or more reviews, neither rates higher than this one. For someone in Warkworth who wants reformer work in a small class, it is a good place to start.
