MOVA Studios is a BRAND NEW Reformer Pilates, Mat Pilates and Yoga studio on Boroughbridge Road in York. Opened in May 2026, the studio offers small group classes across three disciplines, with a Run Club.
Housed on the first floor of Hargrave House, the space has been designed around how it makes people feel. A pitched roof, exposed steel trusses and rooflights running the full length of the ceiling create a calm, warm and naturally lit environment, intentionally different from a standard gym setting.
MOVA was founded by qualified Pilates instructor Ruby McTough, with the aim of building a studio that welcomes every level. Classes are accessible to complete beginners and challenging enough for experienced practitioners, with instructors trained to adapt every movement to the individual.
Ruby breaks down what Reformer Pilates is at the video above.
