A new Pilates studio offering gentler, personalised classes designed specifically for older adults seeking strength, flexibility, and pain-free movement – all from the comfort of home – has opened.
Led by experienced Pilates specialist Becky Rock, Pilates-Port offers accessible and supportive online classes tailored specifically for the over 50s.
Designed for those who may feel out of place in traditional gyms or fitness studios, the classes offer a gentler, more mindful approach to movement—perfect for those managing aches, recovering from injury, or simply looking to age well.
“Pilates-Port is about more than just exercise,” said Becky. “It’s about creating a space – virtual or in-person – where people feel supported, seen, and empowered to move at their own pace. Whether you’re new to Pilates or returning after a break, my classes meet you exactly where you are.”
Classes are small, friendly and easy to join via Zoom – ideal for anyone who prefers to exercise at home or lacks access to local specialist fitness classes – and focus on improving posture, mobility, balance and overall wellbeing.
Becky draws on more than 30 years in the fitness industry, alongside her own experience recovering from a dance-related injury in early adulthood. This unique background fuels her passion for working with older adults, helping them move more freely and feel better every day.
“I work with clients from their late 40s to 80s who know their bodies need a gentler approach to exercise – something realistic, respectful and personal,” added Becky. “My online classes are designed to meet those needs head-on.”
For those local to North Somerset, Becky also offers small group and one-to-one in-person sessions at her home studio, as well as community-based classes at Jubilee Hall and North Weston Village Hall.
The Pilates-Port website is now live and accepting bookings. Becky is currently offering a three-class pass for a limited time, as well as discounted bundles of five, 10, or 20 sessions.
