🌿 Eight years of Refresh Retreats…

For the past eight years, once or twice a year, we’ve escaped to the Cotswolds — learning, developing and refining the experience each time.

We feel like we’ve now found the perfect balance. ❤️

Movement, relaxation, great food, connection and nature.

Surrounded by lakes and beautiful countryside, you can do as much or as little as you like — Pilates, strength training, boxing, walking and swimming, or simply slow down and enjoy the spa.

But the real magic is the connection. Stepping away from everyday life, sharing good food and conversations, connecting with nature and giving your mind and body space to reset.

Our next Refresh Retreat will be Spring 2027, and we’re already planning it. 🌿

If you’d love to join us, DM us “RETREAT” to register your interest and be the first to hear when places are released. ❤️

✨ MEET RACHEL – OUR NEW WOKINGHAM INSTRUCTOR! ✨

We’re excited to welcome Rachel to the Refresh Wokingham team, starting with us from Tuesday 29th September! 🤍

Rachel is a former professional dancer who spent several years performing across Europe before qualifying in Matwork & Reformer Pilates in 2018.

Pilates was always an important part of her training, and today she brings that experience into her classes with a real focus on intentional movement, control and creating a strong mind-body connection.

Outside the studio, Rachel is mum to an energetic toddler and a mischievous whippet — so she knows exactly how valuable that little bit of time for yourself can be! 🐾💛

📍 Refresh Wokingham

🧘‍♀️ Tuesdays – 7:30am
🧘‍♀️ Thursdays – 5:30pm

📅 Rachel’s first class: Tuesday 29th September

If you haven’t trained with Rachel yet, come and give her class a try. Whether you’re new to Reformer or already love Pilates, you’ll be very welcome.

Book your spot through the Refresh website — let’s give Rachel a big Refresh welcome! 🙌

Our Reading studio has been open since 2017, and over the years it has grown into so much more than just a place to exercise. 💚

Our flagship studio brings together Reformer Pilates, Personal Training, small-group strength & boxing, a dance and movement studio, and a dedicated therapy room — all under one roof.

At Refresh, we take a holistic approach to wellness, focusing on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual sides of health. We believe true wellbeing is about more than simply being fit.

Since opening our doors, we’ve helped so many people become stronger, move better, build confidence and achieve their individual goals.

We’re also proud to have played an instrumental role in establishing Reformer Pilates in the Reading area. Many instructors have learned, trained and developed their skills here before going on to build successful careers of their own.

Nearly a decade later, we continue to evolve, but the heart of Refresh remains the same:

Movement. Health. Community. People.

🌟 MEMBER SPOTLIGHT — MARTINA 🌟

What a transformation! 👏🏽🔥

Martina has been part of the Refresh Health community for the past few years, and we’ve had the pleasure of watching her make some incredible changes.

The before-and-afters speak for themselves — but what they don’t show is the consistency, commitment and hard work that has gone into getting here.

This hasn’t been about a quick fix. Martina has kept showing up, kept training and continued working on herself — and the results are amazing. 💪🏽

We’re incredibly proud of you, Martina. ❤️

This is exactly what we love about Refresh. It’s not about where you start, your age, your fitness level or being perfect. It’s about making a start, finding something you enjoy and staying consistent.

Small changes. Consistent effort. Big results.

Well done Martina — thoroughly deserved! 👏🏽👏🏽

What a beautiful Pilates & Fellowship session we had at Refresh Wokingham. 🤍

Our previous session focused on Ruach — an ancient Hebrew word meaning breath, wind and spirit. We explored the idea that some of the most powerful things around us are things we cannot actually see, but we can certainly feel — just like the wind, our breath, a sense of peace, love or the energy and presence of those around us. This session followed on perfectly as we explored the importance of being still. In such a busy world, we are constantly moving, thinking, working and rushing to the next thing, and sometimes we forget how important it is to simply stop. Stillness gives us an opportunity to breathe, quieten the mind, reflect, listen and become more aware of ourselves and everything around us.

Sometimes, it’s in those quiet moments that we feel the things that can’t always be seen or explained. 🤍✨
