Led by Danielle Smith
Pilates in Rochdale
Physiotherapist led Pilates for strength, stability and long term joint health, in group classes and one to one.
Pilates at onePT in Rochdale is taught by Danielle Smith, a physiotherapist with five years of Pilates teaching experience who qualified with the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institution in 2020. That matters because Pilates done well is about control, alignment and the deep muscles that protect your spine and hips, and a physiotherapist sees the things others miss.
Danielle teaches group classes on the onePT timetable and one to one or two to one sessions tailored to individual needs. Members use Pilates to rebuild core strength after injury, to support heavy strength training, to manage back pain, and simply to move better and feel more stable in everyday life.
For members doing strength, HYROX or EMS work, Pilates is the session that keeps hips, shoulders and spine moving well. It pairs with the infrared saunas and the recovery room on the days you are not lifting, and with the monthly one to one where your coach reviews how you are moving.
It sits inside the onePT pathway. You start with the same health and movement assessment as every member, so Danielle knows where you are starting from and what your podium moment is. Pilates group classes are included in the gym and coaching membership. One to one Pilates can be booked separately.
If you are new to Pilates, or returning after a long gap, say so at your free consultation and we will put you in the right class. Message us on WhatsApp and we will send you the current timetable.

“I came to lift weights. I left feeling ten years younger. At 58 I am stronger than I have ever been and I wouldn’t want to train anywhere else.”
“I'm currently recovering from a herniated disc and ongoing sciatica. Neil has taken the time to understand my injuries, adapt everything to my needs and help me feel safe exercising again.”
“I had been a member of a gym 20 years ago, since then life had got in the way and I had lost a bit of confidence to start again in my 60’s. Unsure why I initially hesitated!”
FAQPilates questions

Ask a questionYes. Danielle teaches to the person in front of her, and group classes are mixed ability. Tell her it is your first time.
Often, yes. Physiotherapist led Pilates focuses on the muscles that support the spine. Tell us about your back at your consultation and we will advise whether a class or a one to one is the better start.
Not at the moment. Pilates is on the timetable every week. If yoga is added we will put it on the timetable in the app.
