Yoga/Pilates

Are there any yoga or Pilates classes in MK that aren't part of a dedicated commercial studio? E.g the whitespace type places?
I didn't grow up in MK, but where I did in the southern suburbs of London, there was usually a class operating out of like a village hall, scout hut or similar.
The whitespace or equivalent are so formal, expensive and 'gym like' with contracts and time based packs of classes- was hoping to find something a bit more chill and cheaper.
I've kept an eye out on notice boards and things, but MK estates are so labyrinthine, I dread driving around to check each local centre.
And Google seems to suck at listing this sort of thing. There are a couple out in Cranfield and Cosgrove (at £5 a session Vs £15 a session at a dedicated studio) but I was hoping for something more central, i.e. still on the grid roads at least.

Thanks everyone, I shall check them all out. The Shenley option looks good though :)

I go to Elena at Willen Pavilion, it’s £9 and you choose if you want to go each week. I go to beginners because it’s more laid back but she has a mixed ability class too, this is her website. She is also genuinely one of the loveliest people I’ve ever met

You want to go to a leisure centre. For yoga I can recommend Shenley leisure centre (Sara is great) and also Wolverton leisure centre. You can pay per class and it's pretty cheap.

my wife goes to Shenley Leisure Centre and likes it, I believe it's approx £20/month for unlimited classes
the national badminton centre is a nearby alternative - a bit more expensive but nicer facilities (was just renovated)

I'm not far from shenley, didn't know the leisure centre did a class. There's an expensive studio place across the road though I was considering. Thanks for the tip

My friend does weekly yoga classes in the Square in Wolverton. I highly recommend Sally's classes.

Pilates in Bancroft, there's also yoga/pilates at wolverton pool, it's a bit cheaper than whitespace etc.
