The method
Everything starts at your core.
At Heartcore, we believe that everything starts at your core. We breathe from the core. We move from the core. We feel from the core. It’s where power is born.
Your core is where your intuition lives. Your gut instinct. Your inner strength. Whether on our bespoke Coreformer or on the mat, we strengthen from the center using Pilates principles and intentional, continuous movement.
Every move is designed to challenge your muscles, improve your posture and deepen your awareness, so you leave feeling stronger, more toned, clearer and more anchored in your body.
6 pillars of Heartcore
01
Alignment
Precision in form and function, so every move feels intelligent, supported and effective.
02
Core
Breath-led movement that builds deep strength and connection from the inside out.
03
Rhythm
Moving with purpose, precision and intention – where slowing down becomes strength.
04
Intensity
Creating transformation through time under tension, smart sequencing and powerful holds.
05
Low Impact
Strength through range of motion and control – gentle on joints, powerful through the body.
06
Connection
The energy of moving together – building awareness, confidence and collective strength.
From your core
Into the world.
What began as a well-kept secret within a small circle of Pilates lovers has grown, class by class, into a thriving community. Since 2007, Heartcore has been shaping the way people move through a practice built on strength, care and consistency.
More than just a method, Heartcore is a feeling. Together, we create a warm, focused atmosphere with one clear goal: to make you feel stronger, steadier and more at home in your body.
Our founder’s story
With heart, since 2007.
Heartcore began with Jessie Blum’s belief that when we feel physically, mentally and emotionally in balance, we are capable of more. Movement had always been part of her life, but it was during her years in Los Angeles that the path became clear. Years spent working closely with people and understanding the body showed her just how much the right kind of training could change not only how we move, but how we feel.
She came to London with a simple idea: to create something powerful, intelligent and deeply personal. A method rooted in precision, spaces created with care and a community built on connection. Above all, a place that could help people feel stronger in every sense.
In 2007, Heartcore opened its first studio in Kensington. What started as a small studio and a close-knit circle of Pilates lovers has grown far beyond those first four walls, shaped by the people who walk through our doors and the teachers who bring the work to life. The scale has changed, but the heart of it has not: creating places where people can move, reset and feel more at home in their bodies.
