Kiko Pilates - Taupō's Premier Reformer Pilates Studio

Fantastic experience: Travellers from Hamilton really loved it and was amazing at correcting our form - thanks !

Negative experience: Very bad since I was very new she asked me to pay $100.00 for 1.1 class for only 45minutes.I did in good faith thinking she will get back to me regarding class times for future but no communication yet.Do not recommend anyone .

Fantastic experience: Started with Jess in November and haven’t stopped. The way it makes me feel to push myself harder and beyond what I’ve ever done before, is what I’ve needed for a newer mind set. Best choice I’ve made. Don’t be shy and try it. You will end up loving every second.

Fantastic experience: Jess is engaging and supportive and very professional! Sessions are great for my physical wellbeing.

Fantastic experience: I have been part of the Kiko studio since it opened and love my classes. Jess is an amazing pilates instructor, who makes the classes fun and quite often challenging! She will take the time to work with us so we get the maximum benefit from every class. I highly recommend Kiko - and Jess - if you want to be a part of a great pilates family and work out in a lovely space.

Fantastic experience: Magic, I can’t believe how much my body has repaired & strengthened since going to Kiko Pilates. Jess is a highly skilled, dedicated & totally lovely instructor, who having invested in top quality Merrithew reformers, carefully tailors ever-changing programmes of exercise to ensure we get the very best out of them & ourselves. It’s fascinating how such small & targeted movements, built up in series, can make such a huge impact on body, energy & mind. Never having properly stuck with any exercise until now (& I’m in my 50s!), it feels wonderful to actively look forward to classes. Can’t recommend or praise highly enough, make the change, you’ll love it.

Fantastic experience: Countless injuries, aches and pains sent me looking for a form of low impact exercise. In short -Reformer Pilates has been amazing for both mind and body. I feel refreshed and my knees no longer sound like they need CRC!!! But Jess @ Kiko is the reason I'm a reformer regular. The classes have variety, are challenging and her passion is infectious! I'm hooked - Kiko for the win!

Fantastic experience: Most amazing experience every time when attending Kiko. Beautiful space and beautiful instructor. All classes are run to get an effective workout targeting certain areas, the burn is real!! Forever love being apart of the Kiko community.

Fantastic experience: I would like to give a big shout out to Jess at Kiko. She runs a very professional class, that is very rewarding and challenges us to the core.I am starting to feel the benefits now, with increased flexibility and strength. I always feel secure, knowing Jess is keeping an eye out that we are doing the movements correctly. Highly recommend to anyone of any age.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Jess for any Aussies travelling to Taupo! She was so obliging, hosting a 1:1 class so I could get a session in while away. Her class was the perfect mix of fun and challenging, and she adjusted the program to meet my needs as I recover from a discectomy.

Fantastic experience: Jess is the bees knees of reformer Pilates! She is highly trained and structures her workouts with the perfect amount of strength, stretch and mobility elements. Her passion for Pilates really shines through in her teaching and delivery of classes. Jess will tailor and or adjust movements to meet the needs of any injuries you may have. The community at Kiko is welcoming and energetic and the studio is a beautiful, calming space. If you want a gorgeous mind & body connection then this is the place to be ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: I have been a member at Kiko since April 2023 and it has been an absolute game changer for my body, not only do I move better, I run faster and feel so much better mentally and physically. I am so grateful to Jess for her expertise and guidance. If you haven't tried Kiko yet, you need to get to it!

Fantastic experience: Awesome mums and bubs class, Jess is great at gauging the room and adjusting the exercises so we're not overdoing it but still getting a lot out of the class.

Fantastic experience: Great spot, best coach ever in my opinion. And absolutely amazing results after every session. Xx Sarah piccolo cafe

Fantastic experience: Love Kiko Pilates, love Jess. The most beautiful studio and the reformers are a dream. Small class sizes so you feel like you get the attention/ help should you need it xox

Fantastic experience: Best Pilates in Taupō! Jess is a great instructor, especially for a super uncoordinated girl. From said super uncoordinated girl

Fantastic experience: I have been doing Mums and Bubs pilates at Kiko for the last month or so. It has been a great activity for getting back into exercise after having a baby. Jess is so knowledgeable and mixes it up every week which keeps it fun. There is also a great atmosphere. I highly recommend Kiko Pilates!

Fantastic experience: When I first moved to Taupō I attended a few different fitness classes but didn't find a company that I felt comfortable with. But, after just one class with Jess at Kiko I knew I found the perfect place for me. Now after having a baby I get to continue my pilates journey and bring my little one along to mums and bubs classes! 10/10 love Kiko!

Fantastic experience: 2 of my friends and I recently had a girls weekend in Taupo, and decided it was a great time to try out Reformer Pilates. I highly recommend taking the beginner class with Jess if you are wanting to give it a go, she was super welcoming and helpful. We enjoyed it so much and if we are ever in Taupo again, we will be coming back for another class. :)

Fantastic experience: Jess at Kiko is the Best. Since coming here I have not had a sore back once. I love the mix of the good stretch and strength training that the Beginner Basic's Plus class has. Highly recommend Kiko for Pilates in Taupo!!

Fantastic experience: Thoroughly enjoying my classes with Jess. Having never done Reformer Pilates before I was a little anxious. However, Jess has been very welcoming and encouraging, always ensuring I am understanding the positions and executing them safely. I always come away feeling challenged and invigorated.

Fantastic experience: Kiko is a beautiful pilates studio filled with light, plants and good music! They use high quality reformers and equipment. Jess is such a great teacher, really knowledgable and clear, getting that pilates burn going! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Loved my experience with Jess at Kiko. Jess made me feel so welcome, nailed the workout + had amazing cueing. Will be returning + recommending!

Fantastic experience: I have found my PLACE... I love going to Kiko Pilates ... Jess is an amazing instructor... supportive but challenging. The environment she has created is welcoming, safe, calming but fun. My sessions at Kiko go so fast and I try never to miss it!!

Fantastic experience: I was lucky to attend the most amazing reformer Pilates class with Jess at the gorgeous Kiko. Kiko is by far the best reformer Pilates studio in Taupo! The space is amazing, the reformers top quality, and the teaching, cueing and support from instructors was absolutely out of this world. Jess is so knowledgeable and provides such an upbeat, fun and challenging workout.

Fantastic experience: Kiko's is amazing. A beautiful light filled studio, Really well maintained high quality machines & not lacking in props or equipment. Jess is the real deal and I feel like my progress is important to her.

Fantastic experience: Nine months of Kiko Pilates have taken me from 'blobby' post-covid lockdowns to strong, well-toned and very energetic. I can't recommend Jess Harrison, owner and world class pilates instructor, operating from her modern boutique-style studio in Taupo, highly enough!

Fantastic experience: What can I say, anything short of amazing is not quite right. I enjoyed my session with Jess, she asked me what was going on with my body and if there was anything I wanted to focus on, after talking through what was going on she had me on the machine! I felt comfortable with how she gently pushed me and talked through everything we were doing and why! I now have freedom of movement in my back and did not realise how tight I was in my front hips You can tell she has a background as a personal trainer as well as being an epic reformer instructor, the roll out at the end is mind blowing and I felt so peaceful afterwards. I will be back

Fantastic experience: This studio is awesome. I have been going here since Jess opened and she has helped me a lot with my toning and strength. I have tried quite a few studios in different places and Kiko has hands down been the best. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Kiko studio is an absolutely beautiful space to practice Pilates on new, top quality reformers. Jess instructs very professionally with easy to follow cues. The small classes enable personal instruction to ensure correctness of the stretches.Every class is stimulating and introduces a wide variety of moves working and lengthening all the muscle groups. I am really noticing and feeling the benefits of reformer Pilates and just love it.

Fantastic experience: Love Kiko!! Jess is a fantastic instructor, always varied workouts and enjoyable. Only having 5 in a class is fantastic. Such a great space and awesome vibe. Would definitely recommend Kiko!!

Fantastic experience: Great instructor (especially for beginners) in a clean studio with modern equipment. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Great males ONLY classes

Fantastic experience: Kiko has been my first Pilates experience and Jess has been nothing but amazing! I suffer from neck and lower back pain and have noticed a huge difference since going to Pilates at least once a week. If you are thinking about trying reformer I cannot recommend Kiko enough

Fantastic experience: Jess is an exceptional instructor and very knowledgeable, ensuring you feel safe and understand the process and positions the whole time. I absolutely love it, PLUS the best studio in town!
