The Studio
About The Studio
The Studio is our flexible second space on the top floor of The Mowlem, a bright, open room which is used for performance, film screenings, classes, workshops and seminars.
Fully refurbished in 2024, the Studio offers state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment including a retractable screen, surround sound and stage lighting, plus a portable stage and air conditioning. It seats up to 80 in comfortable chairs, or the floor can be left clear for exercise, yoga or dance classes.
Many of our daytime classes enjoy the picture-window views of the bay, but the full-length blackout curtains quickly turn the large, bright space into a darkened studio space ready for live music, small theatre productions, presentations and big-screen movies.
The Studio is also equipped with a small kitchen / servery, suitable for casual tea, coffee and other refreshments.
For more information about hiring The Studio, or to talk to us about an event you think might work in the space, please contact our Events Manager, Paul Angel by emailing events@themowlem.com
Can I hire the Studio to run my own class?
Yes — the website states there are still slots available for hire. Enquiries should go to Events Manager Paul Angel at events@themowlem.com.
What classes run in the Studio?
A mix of weekly, bi-weekly and monthly activities including yoga, chair exercise, gentle stretch, dance, choirs, Slimming World, a lunchtime workout, and a monthly flower club — see the full weekly schedule for days and times.
When is The Studio available for hire?
The Studio is booked for regular classes and activities several days and nights a week. Please email events@themowlem for more details.
Who do I contact for more information on a specific class?
Each class has its own contact — see individual instructor emails on the schedule (e.g. Vanessa for Chair Exercise, Gentle Stretch and Mostly Mats; Sandra or Sarah for yoga classes; Becs for both choirs).
