I was a civil servant for almost 20 years, and I was completely burnt out.

I wanted to experience a more positive side of life and, having already gained several fitness qualifications, I decided to become a Pilates instructor (despite never having tried Pilates!).

I qualified as a Level 2 Gym Instructor in 2007 and then went on to qualify in water-based exercise.

I have been teaching mat Pilates for the past 6 years. I’ve been teaching at several gyms, and I also have my own classes.

Anyone can enjoy a Pilates class!

I always make sure that I demonstrate, explain and correct to ensure maximum benefit to the client.

My clients always say how comfortable I make them feel and, although you will work hard, we also like to have a laugh. Fitness can be fun.

You’ll see improvements in posture, strength, balance and coordination.
