About Nubodi Pilates
About Us
Nubodi Pilates is a boutique studio in the heart of Henley-on-Thames, founded by Carine Moffett in 2012 and joined by her daughter Lia Frankish in 2021 as Co-Owner.
Carine has been an integral part of the local fitness scene since 2005. Drawing on her extensive background in aerobics, STOTT Pilates Mat & Reformer, Booty Barre, and international training, she curates dynamic, world-class classes designed to challenge, inspire, and transform her clients.
Following in her mother’s footsteps, Lia is a STOTT Pilates Mat & Reformer teacher and CES Pre & Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist. A true mother’s daughter, she has also trained internationally, further deepening her expertise in anatomy, biomechanics, and precise cueing.
Together, Carine and Lia bring warmth, expertise, and a shared passion for movement to Nubodi, creating a welcoming, nurturing environment where everybody can build strength, improve mobility, and move with confidence.
What is Reformer Pilates?
Reformer Pilates is a highly effective form of exercise that combines precision, control, and mindful movement to strengthen, tone, and improve flexibility. At Nubodi Pilates, our classes focus on balanced muscle engagement, alignment, and expert guidance, helping you experience real results in a safe and supportive environment.
We use the Balanced Body Allegro Reformer, widely regarded as one of the best Pilates machines in the world. Its smooth, durable, and intuitive design allows every exercise to be tailored to your level, with adjustable resistance to challenge you safely as you progress.
Our small group classes cater to all abilities, helping you build strength, improve mobility, and develop body awareness.
“In 10 sessions you will feel a difference, in 20 sessions you will see the difference, and in 30 sessions, you will have a whole new body.” — Joseph Pilates
Why Are We Unique?
At Nubodi Pilates, our uniqueness comes from our unwavering commitment to excellence. Everything starts with our teachers—only the absolute best join our team. Every teacher meets the high standards that define the Nubodi experience. You’ll be guided by experts who truly understand the body, including specialists in rehabilitation and pre & postnatal Pilates.
But expertise is only part of the story. Our community is at the heart of what we do. Our teachers are kind, vibrant, and inspiring souls, here to serve you and your body with warmth, care, and precision. Every session blends world-class instruction with a welcoming, supportive environment, ensuring you feel confident, challenged, and nurtured.
We’re one of the few remaining studios that offer class levels and personalised guidance, adapting to your unique needs rather than following fleeting Pilates trends. At Nubodi, we take our job—and your body—seriously. We’re here to help you build strength, improve mobility, and move with confidence, every step of the way.
