 I initially trained and taught yoga until an injury led me to Pilates . I experienced 1st hand the rehab benefits of the discipline and was in awe at the universal benefits of pilates. I trained in London in mat , then reformer . Im continuing my education now in the comprehensive equipment series . My teaching style is inclusive and intuitive . 

My aim is that you leave class feeling good and looking forward to your next session !

At six months old, I was diagnosed with a heart condition called Dilated Cardiomyopathy, which meant exercise was limited for much of my life. Finding Pilates completely changed that. It gave me a safe way to move, build strength, and feel confident in my body and it quickly became a passion that led me to train as an instructor.

My classes focus on feeling good while still embracing a challenge. With clear guidance, lots of encouragement, and options to suit every body, you’ll stretch, strengthen, and push yourself in a supportive, welcoming space. You’ll leave feeling energised, proud of what you’ve achieved, and glowing ✨

Previously qualifying as a paramedic in London taught me both the strengths and the weaknesses of the human body and the importance of building muscle and in particular core strength.

After practicing Mat Pilates for many years I was keen for an added challenge with Pilates based principles and that’s when I tried the reformer and was instantly hooked! Shortly afterwards I trained with Balances Body and became an instructor. I am passionate about teaching others the versatility of the reformer and how we can all life a long and strong life at any age!

Her teaching style blends expertise with enthusiasm, creating classes that are not only effective but also fun and uplifting.

I started Pilates 15 years ago to build a stronger core to support my running and cycling—and to relieve lower back ache.

Pilates works. I’m still out there riding in ultra events—often the oldest woman on the course, and frequently the first one home.

I absolutely adore the Pilates method.  When practiced correctly on the mat and on the reformer with the right springs for both the body and the exercise it truly delivers results.

Whether you’re here to build strength, support your sport, or simply move better in daily life, I’d love to help you experience what Pilates can do for you!
