Pilates Club is a boutique reformer Pilates studio at 189 Commerce Street in Whakatāne. It is owned and run by one instructor, Taylah, who has more than ten years' experience in health and fitness. Its classes are 50 minutes long, blend basic Pilates with strength-based movement, and are offered at all levels. The studio says it is a welcoming community, where each session is tailored to the person. For a first visit, there is a personalised introductory session that covers the basic movements, with a $70 upgrade (as at 2026) that includes Pilates socks. There is also a drop-in class with no commitment, a pass of ten classes at a 10 percent discount, which expires after 12 weeks, and private sessions for one-to-one attention.
Customers say Taylah is informative, corrects technique in a good way, and keeps every class different. One regular comes two or three times a week and says she always feels better afterwards. Another says the studio is a real asset to Whakatāne, with a welcoming space for anyone who wants to try reformer Pilates. Reviewers mention the knowledgeable instructor, the varied classes and the welcoming atmosphere most often. The only other Pilates studio within a kilometre, Beryl's Pilates, is 0.7 km away and has one review.
