A NEW Pilates studio could be coming to Bournemouth.

Bournemouth-based Sarah Hawkins wants to open the studio in the former Wiseguys barbershop at 303-305 Charminster Road.

Wiseguys has moved to Winton after four years in Charminster, and recently gained permission to serve alcohol to customers before 7pm.

According to the application for change of use permission, the proposal is for opening hours of 8am to 6.30pm Monday to Friday, one 9.30am class at weekends plus a 6.30pm class on Sundays only.

A short statement says: "The shop floor will stay as it is.

"The studio will only cater for four persons max so there will be no impact on the high street."
