We're located in South Kensington, a short 5-minute walk from Gloucester Road Tube station. Leonieke has been a movement teacher in The Netherlands since the late 1980s, specializing in dance and aerobics. After extensive surgery she moved to the UK and came across Pilates, which greatly aided in her rehabilitation. She was amazed by the self-healing properties of the body and how Pilates helped h
er to be able to do what she loved again: move! Back in The Netherlands she embarked on her adventure with STOTT PILATES in 2008. Having been a school teacher she felt the need to share her knowledge of the method that has brought her so much, so she certified as an IT in 2016. In the meantime she has moved back to the UK and is now delivering Merrithew Health and Fitness courses and workshops for both K'dans in The Hague as for the YMCAfit@OneKX in London and she opened a boutique 1-2-1 studio in September 2020. Whether the goal is to be able to move pain-free or to further athletic abilities, Leonieke is devoted to helping clients and students alike to move their bodies in the most effective and efficient manner possible, creating more awareness of how the body works, while having fun doing so.
