Welcome to Hill View Pilates
Hill View Pilates is a peaceful studio in the heart of the South Downs, just five minutes from Steyning and Bramber. With sweeping countryside views and free parking right outside, it’s a calm and accessible space to move, restore, and reset.
Our classes are fascia-informed, nervous-system-aware, and rooted in movement science. They are challenging and restorative, offering intelligent progressions that honour the complexity of the body and the individuality of each person.
Whether you’re wanting to build strength or improve performance, manage pain or are recovering from injury, we offer options to meet you where you are, whilst also encouraging you to go further than you thought possible.
About Helen
I came to Pilates after I experienced a severe episode of lower back pain. That acute pain forced me to stop and listen to my body in a way I never had before. A physiotherapist introduced me to Pilates, and something shifted. I wasn’t just feeling stronger, I felt more connected, it was as if I was building resilience from the inside out. I trained as a certified STOTT Pilates Instructor and continue to explore how movement can support strength, resilience, and lasting change. My approach blends intelligent challenge with compassion, helping people move with confidence, awareness, and ease.
Expert Teaching, Personal Attention
Our small team of instructors – myself, Emily, Michelle, Kiran and Milli, brings a wide range of experience, working closely with physiotherapists, osteopaths, and other professionals to support recovery, performance, and whole-body wellbeing.
Whether you’re here to build strength, manage a condition, or enjoy focused movement in a beautiful setting, you’ll be supported every step of the way.
