Discover reformer pilates class at 1Rebel Oxford Circus

• Chloe Clements ★★★★★

  I've been attending 1Rebel at Oxford Circus ofor the past few months, and it has quickly become my favourite place to work out. No matter what time of day I visit, every member of the Oxford Circus team has been incredibly kind, welcoming, and positive. The front-of-house staff are consistently friendly and create such a great atmosphere from the moment you walk in. I've taken Reformer Pilates classes with several instructors, and while they all bring their own strengths, I particularly wanted to recognise Charlotte. I have hearing loss, so being able to clearly hear instructions makes a huge difference to my experience. Charlotte is by far the clearest and loudest instructor for me, which means I can follow the class confidently without having to rely on watching the people around me to work out which springs to use or what position we're moving into next. It makes the entire class far more enjoyable and allows me to focus on the workout itself. Charlotte communicates exceptionally well, keeps a close eye on every individual in the room, and manages to make everyone feel supported throughout the class. During the first week of the Reformer Reps classes, she kept the movements flowing naturally, never made the pace feel rushed, and ensured everyone stayed together and in sync. Her energy, encouragement, and attention to detail really stand out. A huge thank you to Charlotte and the entire Oxford Circus team for creating such a welcoming and enjoyable space. It's a pleasure to be a part of it and based on my consistent positive experience would highly recommend 1Rebel to anyone considering joining.

  The location is great and the facilities are some of the best I’ve seen across the 1Rebel studios I go to. The bathrooms and changing rooms are noticeably more spacious than at other locations, which is definitely appreciated. That said, the overall atmosphere feels quite different from other 1Rebel locations which I also attend regularly. Oxford feels much more impersonal, and unfortunately the reception team haven’t come across as particularly warm or friendly. At other locations, the energy from the front desk genuinely adds to the experience and makes you want to keep coming back. Here, I tend to just want to go straight into class. Aside from that, I do really like this location, especially now with the new Radiate classes with Abdallah, which are absolutely brilliant and very highly recommended!

  Megan is a truly amazing Pilates instructor! She’s knowledgeable, encouraging and always makes every session enjoyable. She definitely acknowledges all people are training at different levels and I’ve noticed such a difference since training with her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic instructor!

  I NEVER write bad reviews I really don’t believe you should unless the experience was really awful and sadly this is one of those times. Arrived on time, checked in, went to go in on time but thought I better quickly go to pee and went to the class 2 mins after the start while she’s still doing the intro, I open the door and the instructor refuses entry!! People at the front desk just kept saying “it’s your responsibility to be on time” when I was literally on time! Insane behaviour! I understand a no entry after start policy but by one or two minutes?! Really pathetic… irony is I should have gone inside the room put my gloves down and turned around to pee - somehow would mean I’m allowed to stay and would be no different really. Really dumb. The man working at reception (this is 4th March) and the instructor herself were so rude, whereas the girl with short hair was nice and seemed like she was pained by having to tell me this information bless! Don’t bother. The location is convenient so I’ve done classes here a couple times, the boxing is a work out but the instructors are not boxers and have no idea what they’re doing, I’ve trained for years in boxing and some of the instruction can even be really incorrect, and often extremely basic. I go to a lot of classes in london and I’ve never encountered such a needlessly intense timing system and frankly I won’t be back after that.

  This is one of the nicer 1rebel locations! I have only attended the reformer classes, cannot comment on rumble & reshape. I love how spacious the studio is. All the instructors are very attentive and knowledgeable! The locker rooms are very roomy & have a nice set of amenities after the work out. The best part is the eucalyptus cold towels 🤍
