Savvy Studios

Fantastic experience: I came to a couple of Pilates classes at Savvy Studios whilst on holiday in Carbis Bay. Really friendly and welcoming teachers and locals. They offer a variety of style of Pilates including Reformer and cater to people’s ability offering adjustments and layers to suit all. Lovely studio with all the props you could wish for! I’ll definitely be back when next in Cornwall.

Fantastic experience: For the past 10months I have been taking my daughter to her ballet class at savvy studios and what an amazing place it is. Claire and Aidan, go above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and are always happy to have a chat or help with any questions or queries we have. Claire is an incredible teacher and has so much patience and passion in teaching the children. The work that goes into savvy studios by Claire, Aidan and the rest of the team is absolutely amazing, the endless classes they offer and the outstanding shows they put on are always fantastic and so well thought out. I have seen my daughter grow in confidence throughout the last ten months and that’s all thanks to Claire. The studio itself always look so clean and fresh! Highly recommend ⭐️

Fantastic experience: Amazing dance school in the heart of Hayle. I've been going to savvy studios for the last 2 years and have really enjoyed every barre class I've attended. It's a challenging workout and I always come away feeling great! I've been going throughout my second pregnancy and have had minimal back pain in comparison to my first and feel overall much fitter even whilst pregnant. Huge thanks to Clare and team for putting on such a high standard of fitness and dance classes for all ages!

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been with Savvy for 8 years and has enjoyed every minute along the way. She attends ballet, contemporary modern jazz and commercial (street) over 4 sessions a week. She has flourished under Clare and her team, I would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Savvy is a professionally run dance studio with a very friendly, welcoming atmosphere. The teachers embrace all students whatever their ability and really care about their individual needs. Clare is incredibly knowledgeable about the industry and has been invaluable in my daughter's dance journey, her personal touch makes us feel like Zailee is her only student. Absolutely first class !

Fantastic experience: My daughter has attended Savvy Studios since she was 4 years old, she is now 12. Miss Clare and her whole team are outstanding. My daughter has thrived under the studios and they have helped to mould and shape the person she is today. I cannot recommend the dance studios enough, they are inclusive for all and such a wonderful family to be part of. We have had so many memorable experiences that we as a family will always treasure. If you are looking for dance classes for children & adults or health and well being Savvy Studios is the place to go, with free taster sessions what could be more perfect?!! Give it a go you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: What a find! A classy, professional dance studio with an open to all policy. The adult ballet classes are BRILLIANT - even for someone like me, highly self conscious and a newbie to dance. Claire and her team are patient, knowledgeable, funny and generous (Claire lent me her own ballet shoes before she'd even met me!) The fees are very fair and the team are absolute professionals. They've got me dancing - and laughing - and all without breaking the budget!

Fantastic experience: I was delighted to discover that there is Reformers Pilates locally. I have been working with Clare for 6 months now and from the start noticed the increasing difference it makes to me in myself and my work. I really appreciate Clare’s attention to detail to the individual, and carefully works with me with specific exercises each session, depending on how I am and what I have been doing, and need. For example i had an instance of an overworked or “pinged” a muscle,and some lower back pain. The use of the reformer and Clare’s guidance has left me leaving a session with a sense of relief, spaciousness, lightness and fluidity and opening in my spine back and whole body the sensation lasting long after the session and pain free! I have come to trust Clare’s judgement and process and her in-depth knowledge which is evident, and as an experienced dancer herself her input is invaluable. I enjoy the increasing challenge which Clare monitors, and the intuitive way in which we work evident in how she can adapt and support each individuals needs and aspirations with support and advice. She will notice and help with the tiniest of adjustments which make such a big difference. After each session I feel renewed, and flushed through - you’ll always feel better after a session! I have more control, mobility, flexibility from the inside outside helping my creative choices in my own practice and helping to avoid injury. It also supports and partners my love of sea swimming, and I always try to include a dip after as part of my time as the studio is so near the sea and it is like a complete physical and mental workout and refreshment- highly recommend it! I feel so fortunate that we have this facility locally and a professional who is dedicated to providing the best she can, let’s support this growing community concern. Demelza, Shallal Dance Theatre

Fantastic experience: I enjoyed a wonderful foot workshop at Savvy Studios today. Claire is so knowledgeable and my feet already feel much more flexible and less painful. Thank you! X

Fantastic experience: Clare has been an absolute godsend, as someone who has a sporting history (swimming) I was really dubious about Pilates and aerial Pilates. However, I ended up cap in hand. Clare explained, with expert, almost surgical level expertise about the effects on muscles, nervous system and hormonal balances. She has been a constant source of support and always does the best for her students. You aren’t a client. You are savvy family when you walk through the door. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: Moved to Penzance last year and searched high and low for a studio which offered Pilates Reformer classes and bingo - Savvy Studios! What a little gem. Clare is a godsend and has whipped me back into shape after all the lockdowns. My feet had seized up - I’d tried everything including reflexology but after several sessions with Clare everything is working again as it should. She’s amazing - knows just how hard to push me, exceptionally knowledgable whilst at the same time a lot of fun. Can’t recommend this place - and Clare - highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Clare’s passion for movement and for sharing her knowledge and skills with others just shines out of her, making her studio a joyful place to be. Her group Pilates classes and her 1:1 classes always leave me feeling relaxed, energised, and excited about what I’ve learned. Clare was also my supervising teacher during my training with Body Control Pilates, and her generosity with her time and knowledge was instrumental in helping me realise my dream of becoming a Pilates teacher. I have also seen shows which demonstrate the quality of Clare’s astonishing dance teaching. I highly recommend Savvy Studios, as whatever your level of experience, you will be encouraged, nurtured and will soon be moving in ways you never thought were possible!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing teacher and classes. Clare has literally helped to change my body and life, from being weak and shy to feeling strong and confident in myself and my body's abilities. The knowledge and care she possess is second to none and the environment she creates in the studio is welcoming and caring, for all abilities. The best pilates classes i've ever been too!

Fantastic experience: I have attended both Barre and ABC with Clare and find both of these classes of huge benefit and hugely enjoyable (well...as enjoyable as any exercise can be!) Clare is a knowledgable and enthusiastic teacher. My 6 year old also attends her Ballet classes and she is always super excited to get there!

Fantastic experience: Very professional, very approachable, very talented, great classes, highly recommended, used by the whole family

Fantastic experience: Clare at Savvy Studios is such a great teacher. She is so knowledgeable about all things dance, pilates, barre etc.. She listens to your needs and then works through the sessions making sure you're getting what you want and need out of her classes. I can't recommend Savvy and Clare enough - she's amazing!

Fantastic experience: Amazing classes. Fab teachers! Having tried and tested a LOT of Pilates, Clare’s are by far the best I’ve been to with varied exercises and I’ve progressed so much further than when I’ve attended classes elsewhere. The barre, ABC and yoga are all great too! Definitely recommend all of them :)

Fantastic experience: Claire is an exceptionally talented and experienced instructor . I use Savvy Studios 3 times a week; currently to tone and strengthen. When I started, my back, core and knowledge were weak. 6 months down the line I’ve been taught to work out safely and effectively. I can’t recommend Savvy Studios enough!

Fantastic experience: I have participated in dances which culminated in a show which felt like the West End with this talented company. Its fab-u-lous!! Clare is great at irking talent out of even the most reluctant of dancers and is extremely skilled at upskilling you and improving your physical and mental state of mind along the way.

Fantastic experience: Great classes, been taking them for almost a year now. Ballet Barre is brilliant and my new favourite, Pilates, really has taught me about my body. Clare is great, knowledgeable and demands the same from her team. I love my work outs and only wish I could fit more in!

Fantastic experience: Been going to Pilates for over year now with Claire and I absolutely love it. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Claire is a great teacher and I've noticed such a difference in my body. The group is warm and friendly. Would definitely recommend. Savvy studios is the place to be! My daughter also goes to savvy dance and always comes back with a smile on her face!
