am pilates london
My Pilates journey started after I was diagnosed with scoliosis (curvature of
the spine) as a teenager and underwent several operations to fuse a large part
of my spine with rods. I was introduced to Pilates by my Physio and it became
part of my early rehab - which then developed into a love for Pilates in my
adult life. Pilates, on the mat and using the apparatus, has had a huge impact
on my physical and mental wellbeing. To such an extent that it led me to want to
help others experience Positive Movement Every Day. I work with my clients,
largely on a one to one basis, identifying their needs and developing a personal
movement programme whether that be for rehab, athletic training or general well
being. We use the suite of Pilates apparatus (reformer, tower, chair) as well as
the mat and smaller equipment (eg spine corrector, blocks and balls). If you are
hoping that Pilates will help with your pain management, I can provide
information on how it has helped me over the years. I have true empathy with all
chronic pain sufferers and my goal is, over time, to help you improve your
quality of life. I have lived in and around South Woodford for most of my life
and love that my job enables me to meet and help other local people. I am a mum
to two children, plus our newest addition - a puppy. They all keep me very busy
and active, something that would have been a daily struggle without Pilates in
my life. MY TRAINING I completed my comprehensive (mat and apparatus) Pilates
training with Polestar Pilates. I am a Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher and
a member of the Pilates Teachers Association. I have my Level 3 in Pre and Post
Natal Training, which qualifies me to teach Pilates safely to mums at a time
when their bodies and minds are experiencing great change, and I am trained to
teach Pilates to children (I have an enhanced DBS). If you would like to learn
more about how Pilates can help improve your wellbeing please do contact me by
email or completing the contact form I look forward to hearing from you.
