I was introduced to the Pilates method after a serious accident in my early twenties left me with potentially life changing injuries. After surgery my Physio introduced me to Pilates exercises as part of my rehabilitation plan which I followed resolutely and the results were astonishing, both to myself and my medical team.
I resolved to train in the Method after recovery and also as a Sports Therapist alongside to bring deeper knowledge into my courses and classes and to be able to offer treatments such as Remedial / Sports Massage alongside.
Practicing Pilates has allowed me to continue my work and sporting hobbies with a passion for many years!
