Our Story

Pilates and the City was built for women with a full life: the 9-5er, the founder, those who want to live well and balance it all.

Our Story

British timelessness. Scandinavian living.

Inspired by our British and Nordic roots, Pilates and the City is athoughtfully curated world of pilates, sport, wellness and lifestyle for modern living.

Rooted in Pilates and its principles, PATC publishes editorial wellness content, thoughtfully designed pilates classes, and considered recommendations and conversations through the lens of women building careers, businesses and full lives.

The PATC Philosophy

Everything we create at Pilates and the City is guided by three principles: Strength. Focus. Elegance.

Strength is building a body and a mindset that supports a full, busy life.

Focus is moving and thinking with consideration.

Elegance is confidence through pilates and beyond, something you carry with you for the rest of the day.

Our pilates classes are built around these three principles, and they're the lens through which we approach everything else at Pilates and the City.

About Tammy

Originally from the UK, Tammy is a Head of Marketing in finance and a qualified Pilates instructor based in Oslo, Norway. With a full-on career, back-to-back meetings and now motherhood, she found that the wellness industry often felt like yet another thing to optimise, and another excuse to buy more. Instead, she kept coming back to the things that consistently worked: a twenty-minute Pilates routine and a handful of trusted wellness habits that helped her feel strong, clear-headed and like herself again.

During her maternity leave (quite literally whilst in labour) she published her first post. The idea was to share and explore movement, Pilates and modern wellness through the lens of women with ambitious, full lives - the ones who had been largely overlooked by the wellness industry built around three-hour morning routines rather than morning commutes.
