Last night we held our first group face to face Pilates class at Henley Practice, it was so good to be back on the mats together! A big thank you to Laurence Plant for supporting our return and providing such a great venue to work out in!

We socially distanced, brought our own mats,towels and water, with masks if desired. We all felt very comfortable.

There's nothing like working together face to face, there's connection and great energy and I get to help more with form and ex*****on of the exercises.

Our classes are smaller to ensure our safety which means places are limited and booking in advance is necessary.

If you would like to join us at 7.00pm on a Friday night please give me a call to book. 07572411242.

Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

I help recreational and amateur athletes with a passion for swimming, cycling and running amongst other activities, to optimise their athletic performance and recovery by increasing their strength, flexibility, stability and mobility.

With all that's going on in the world presently it is imperative that we continue to pay attention to our well being, both physical and emotional, we must keep our bodies moving and maintain our strength. It is my hope that you'll trust me to support you in these areas over the coming months with Pilates. I can offer group Pilates and 1:1's to you in the safety of your homes using Zoom.

Until the tide turns, my group classes will be donation based with a suggested minimum donation of £5.00, but please don't be shy to join if you cant afford to pay now or if your circumstances alter financially in the future - the situation has affected us all, myself included so we must support each other as best we can. Can I just ask that you spread the word of my classes so they are well supported?

Its my desire to add more classes to the timetable so shout with ideas on new members, groups and times.

Private online 1:1's will be reduced to £30.00 for the foreseeable future.

Please email me to be added to our Pilates for Performance community and you will receive invites to classes and payment details. [email protected]
