Guided by Oriana Shepherd, founder of , the ‘Step into Self’ retreat unfolds through movement, breath, stillness, and reflection. From Sept 19-24 for an experience where movement becomes a language, breath a guide, and stillness a teacher.

COMMUNITY SPACE

At hum we have set aside special spaces in every daytime class for those facing life’s challenges.
No proof needed, just trust.
We are offering: Community space.
Simply a space in our usual practice for those who are in need of support, it is the same as a regular space but is of no cost - though yogis may contribute what they can if they wish.
To access the space simply book via DM where we can confirm availability. There is no charge.
Once you’ve booked it’s the same for those using the community space as it is for everybody else.
For clarity - this is a space in practice intended for those who...
Feel stress frequently about meeting basic needs for themselves (or their family)
See little income left over after meeting their basic needs
May have an unstable home
Do not hold a job and are unemployed
Receive government assistance
Cannot afford a holiday
Rarely buy new (and not out of choice)
We trust that these spaces will be taken by those who qualify - no evidence required.
For those of you who don’t meet the criteria but are looking for a way to practice that is easier on the wallet than a drop-in please check out our membership options, donation based class or class pass packs.

We also offering community outreach sessions to local groups - please get in touch if you would like to discuss us supporting your group with practices that support a sense of balance.

Six weeks after an Achilles rupture from football, we're not loading the injured tendon just yet. Instead, we're maintaining strength, building upper body and core, keeping the uninjured leg strong, and using low-impact movement to support the body through recovery.

That's the beauty of Reformer Pilates. Our one-to-one sessions can be adapted to where you are today, not where you wish you were.
Whether you're recovering from injury, returning to sport, or simply want to move better, our studio is built around functional movement that supports real life.

Because Pilates isn't one-size-fits-all. It's intelligent movement.

We're 5 next month, and I wanted to take a moment to reflect and highlight the fact that our longevity, in a world where businesses open and unfortunately close in a heartbeat, has only been possible because of the amazing community we've managed to foster with you, our members, over that time.

From opening our little studio, to reaching our first 10 and then 15 members, to building a base of hundreds of members, opening our second reformer studio, hosting overseas retreats, running community donation classes, volunteering yoga at our local homeless charity in Canning Town, Teacher Trainings and Yoga in the Sky sessions high above the city at the Lantern Room not to mention our little City Island studio featuring in the Take That documentary, there is so much more than we sometimes realise that goes into supporting a business like Hum.

We know you have more choice than ever when it comes to wellness, but as I sit here reflecting on everything we've achieved together over the last five years, I can't help but feel a real sense of pride. Not just for what Hum has become, but for the longevity we've achieved together.
Thank you for choosing us, supporting us, and helping shape the community that Hum is today.

Keep your eyes peeled, we've got lots of celebrations in store for our community as we mark 5 years of Hum. Here's to the next 5, which we will be spending in our purpose built 3000sq ft studios on the banks of the River Thames, Good Luck Hope, City Island.

This Saturday come to dream land and immerse yourself in the healing power of sound.

Sound sessions are more than just soothing tones, it's a powerful tool for healing and balance. Through vibrations, sound waves can pe*****te deep into the body, promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and even improving sleep. Instruments like Tibetan bowls, gongs, rain sticks, drums resonate with your body's natural frequencies, which could help to clear energetic blockages and restore harmony.
Experience the magic of sound with our resident sound angel

Join us on our annual Italian Wellness Retreat, an unhurried week on the Tuscany/ Umbria border, of connection, movement, nourishment and deep rest, the kind of quiet that only the Italian countryside can offer.

Villa Pia is known for its outstanding hospitality and exceptional traditional Italian cuisine, lovingly prepared by the most wonderful women chefs using local, seasonal produce.
Days begin with sunrise swims and slow, spacious mornings. Afternoons soften into rest, stillness, and connection, before unfolding into alfresco candlelit dinners and sunset aperitivi overlooking the endless rolling hills in the foothills of Umbria.
A week of reconnecting — to yourself, to movement, to nature, and to what you need most. Everything is optional. Nothing is rushed. You are invited to take what you need, and leave the rest.

A perfect pause in time. A place where everything gently slows, and life returns to its natural rhythm.

📍 Villa Pia, Italy
📅 19–24 September

When we’re so far removed from what’s actually happening in the moment. When our mind is so busy telling stories, creating ‘what ifs’. We come to this practice and reconnect, find focus, stillness & quiet.
