Welcome to Helen Rackowe Pilates Cheltenham, a specialist STOTT Pilates studio located in Cheltenham, New Zealand. Helen Rackowe is a highly experienced and certified Pilates instructor who offers a range of classes and private sessions to cater to the diverse needs of her clients.
Helen's studio is a warm and inviting space, designed to create a friendly and comfortable environment for clients to enjoy their Pilates practise. The studio offers both matwork and reformer-based classes, as well as private sessions and duets for those looking for more individualised attention.
Private Pilates sessions are held either on the reformer or on the mat, and are booked by appointment only.

Matwork classes are offered in a group setting and cater to clients of all levels, from beginners to advanced. These classes often incorporate light equipment such as toning balls, flex bands, fitness circles, and foam rollers, adding variety and challenge to the exercises. To ensure quality instruction and personalised attention, class sizes are restricted to a maximum of 12 clients.
For those who are short on time, have children at home, or prefer not to travel, Helen also offers online Pilates classes. These sessions are conducted through Zoom and allow clients to participate from the comfort of their own homes. Helen is able to physically demonstrate exercises and provide individual correction to ensure clients are performing them correctly.
Helen's classes are held at various locations in Cheltenham, including Christchurch Hall on Malvern Road, Corraine Collins Dance Studio on Commercial Street, and Dean Close School Dance Studio on Shelburne Road. The studio's timetable can be easily accessed and bookings made on the website.
