Haven Studios

Community. Connection. Giving back. 🖤🤍

At Haven Studios, we believe that being part of a community means more than simply having a business within it.

It’s about supporting the people around us, giving back where we can and celebrating the organisations and teams that bring our local community together.

We’re so proud to sponsor the Walterstown U12 Gaelic Football Team and to see them proudly wearing their new Haven jerseys. ⚽️ 🖤

Because while it’s one thing to build a business, it’s another thing entirely to have a community that supports, encourages and believes in you.

We appreciate every single person who walks through Haven’s doors, recommends us, supports us and makes Haven what it is. 🫶🏻

Community support means everything to us - and where we can give a little back, we’re proud to do so.

Best of luck to the Walterstown U12s for the season ahead! 🖤

A little more flexibility at Haven 🍃🖤

From 31 August, with the start of our new term, we’re introducing our Flex Five Pass.

Designed for those who need a little more flexibility, the Flex Five gives you 5 individual classes to use over 2 months, for €125.

Importantly, the Flex Five does not replace our six-week blocks. Our six-week block remains our best value option at €130 and is the best way to build consistency, accountability and progression in your Pilates practice.

Flex Five and single classes are available only in spaces remaining after our six-week block bookings, so availability will be limited.

Our options:

Six-week block — €130
Our best value + your regular weekly class

Flex Five — €125
5 classes over 2 months + added flexibility

Single | Drop in class — €28
For those occasional classes when space is available

Whatever option works best for your schedule, our commitment remains the same: the quality, expertise, personal attention and standard of care you expect from Haven.

We believe consistency is key to seeing real benefits from your Pilates practice — and we want to make it as easy as possible for you to keep showing up. 🤍

Flexibility, without compromising quality.

We look forward to welcoming you to your Haven as always 🖤

MORE RESISTANCE ≠ MORE RESULTS

One of the biggest misconceptions in Reformer Pilates is that a heavier spring automatically means a harder - or better - workout.

It doesn’t.

The right spring is the one that allows you to challenge the body while maintaining control, alignment and intention.

Too much resistance can actually make an exercise less effective. You may begin to:
• Lose control of the carriage
• Compensate through your shoulders, ribs,
hips or neck
• Lose your alignment
• Use momentum instead of muscular control
• Take the focus away from the muscles you’re actually trying to work

Sometimes, less spring creates more work.

A lighter spring can demand greater control, stability and precision because your body has to work harder to manage the movement.

And sometimes, a heavier spring is exactly what you need - particularly when you’re looking for support, stability or strength.

This is why the equipment matters.

At Haven, we use top-quality Balanced Body Allegro Reformers, giving our instructors precise, consistent spring resistance to work with.

And our instructors are Balanced Body trained, so they understand how each spring setting changes the exercise - and, importantly, how to choose the appropriate resistance for the person in front of them.

It isn’t about choosing the heaviest spring.

It’s about choosing the right resistance for your body, your level and the exercise you’re performing - so you can work effectively without unnecessary compensation.

Because the goal isn’t simply to move the carriage.

The goal is to move with control, precision and purpose.

The best resistance is the resistance you can control. 🤍

See you very soon at your Haven …

Let’s talk about your pelvic floor. 🖤

It’s something we all have, but it’s often something we don’t really understand.

Your pelvic floor works with your breath, diaphragm and deep abdominal muscles to support your body and manage pressure.

And importantly, it isn’t just about “squeezing.”

Your pelvic floor needs to be able to contract, relax, lengthen and respond to pressure - adapting to what your body is doing.

This is one of the reasons we place so much emphasis on breath, control and connection in Pilates at Haven.

Understanding how your pelvic floor works can help you move with greater awareness and confidence.

Save this post for a little pelvic floor refresher.

See you in your Haven very soon.

Your body doesn’t move exactly the same way every day. And it shouldn’t have to.

Sleep, stress, training, hormones, energy levels and even how you’re feeling that morning can all influence how you move.

That’s why good Pilates isn’t about simply getting through a list of exercises.

It’s about paying attention.

Your instructor should be watching how you move, where you compensate, how you control the movement and when something needs to be adapted.

The springs can change.
The range can change.
The tempo can change.
The exercise can change.

The goal is always the same: better movement, greater strength and a better understanding of your body.

Because Pilates isn’t about performing perfectly.

It’s about learning to move well. 🤍

Save this for the days when your body feels a little different - remember, that doesn’t mean you’re having a bad session. 😉

See you in studio soon!
