Pilates came into my life 13 years ago after I suffered a back injury and had spinal surgery. Very quickly I realised it’s benefits and it became a way of life enabling me to participate in many other activities, like running that I thought I wouldn’t be able to do again.
I realised that, in order to sustain my active life and future proof my body to be a fit and healthy mum, I needed to build this form of movement therapy into my life permanently.
I hope to pass my knowledge and experience on to clients and guide them so that they too can gain not only strength and flexibility but also more body awareness and maybe even a love and passion for Pilates too.
In my spare time, I love to hang out with family and friends, walk my dogs and swim in the sea. I love running and cycling and a weekend away where I can do either one of these things with lovely friends is a joy.

Typical yoga classes can be intense with pressure to keep up with the rest of the class, and no time to stop and ask questions.
These classes are different. Our small group classes are limited to 5 people which creates a more intimate dynamic allowing each student receives ample attention, to ask questions and move at their own pace.
This also means classes can be more tailored to each student.
Classes can be booked as individual drop-ins or in 4 week-blocks.

£40 4 week Block

I started practicing yoga in lockdown, initially as a means of exercise. I eventually started to see that yoga was an amazing tool to help me unwind and de-stress and more recently has played a massive part in helping me cope with mental health issues such as anxiety and PTSD.
In 2023, I completed my 200 hour Hatha yoga teacher training with the intention of deepening my own personal practice. Now I want to spread all the goodness yoga gives me to others in my yoga classes.
My classes are suited to all levels with the intention of providing a non-intimidating approach to yoga, to help students develop their own personal practice.
