We Love Pilates Teacher 

I am passionate about Pilates because it is such a versatile form of exercise and is accessible to everyone regardless of age or ability.

I love how Pilates is a progressive form of exercise and each week you can feel yourself getting stronger, more flexible and able to do the exercises with more ease than you could do before.  At the same time you are getting a workout that challenges you as there are so many progressions to each exercise.

As a Contemporary Pilates teacher I have undertaken extensive practical and theoretical training in the Pilates method including advanced anatomy, core stability, shoulder stability, muscle imbalance, postural analysis and exercise planning and programming.
I enjoy learning about health, nutrition and fitness and keep up to date with my training so that I have up to date knowledge about Physiology, Pilates and Somatic movement - I'm always a student!

Our bodies are designed to move! I find movement fascinating and am always learning new methods & techniques that I bring to my classes.
