London, United Kingdom, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — JC Fitness World LTD, founded by Brazilian movement and Pilates specialist Juliana Campos, whose high-profile private clients have included Camila Cabello, the Abu Dhabi Royal Family and Patricia Caring, will launch the UK’s first private one-to-one Pilates Acrobático practice from its Knightsbridge studio on 14 October 2026.

On 13 October 2026, selected media are invited to a press preview overlooking the River Thames at The Deck, a stunning rooftop café and events venue at flexible office space location OSiT Monument. With views towards The Shard and Tower Bridge, Campos will perform Pilates Acrobático, giving media an opportunity to see, photograph and film the new Brazilian practice ahead of its UK launch.
The invitation-only preview will also allow attending media to interview Campos about the practice, why Juliana Campos Pilates is bringing it to London and how it forms part of the company’s wider Brazilian Movement Philosophy.
Taking Pilates off the mat, Pilates Acrobático combines Pilates principles with acrobatic movement, using specialist equipment including acrobatic fabric, swings and rings to challenge strength, flexibility, balance and body control.
The practice forms part of JC Fitness World’s wider Brazilian Movement Philosophy, a distinctive approach that combines the technical foundations of Classical Pilates with Pilates Acrobático and the rhythm, fluidity and freedom of movement rooted in her Brazilian heritage.
Movement has been part of Campos’ life since growing up in Campo Grande, Brazil, where dance and samba became an early passion. She went on to perform professionally at five Rio Carnivals before being crowned Notting Hill Carnival Queen in 2017.
Now 49 and a mother of two, Campos has more than 25 years’ experience in fitness, sports rehabilitation and nutrition. Her career has taken her from professional dance to elite private training; she was a health and fitness columnist for GQ and was crowned WBFF European Champion in 2014.
Campos also brings more than a decade of Pilates experience to the new practice, including over 600 hours of Classical Pilates training and specialist training in Pilates Acrobático. Despite its dramatic appearance, the discipline does not require her clients to be acrobats: movements can be adapted to the individual and developed progressively, allowing clients to work at their own level and build confidence as they progress.
Campos says: “Pilates Acrobático challenges the body in a completely different way. You’re building strength, balance, coordination and control, but you’re also developing confidence in what your body can actually do. You can start at your own level and gradually discover strength and movement you didn’t realise you had.”
Private one-to-one Pilates Acrobático sessions will be available by appointment at JC Fitness World’s Knightsbridge studio from 14 October 2026.
