Always a student 🤓

A good 6 months of study ahead but I'm really excited to begin something I started several years ago with my Precision Nutrition certificate.

This is just the beginning.

Looking forward to supporting women in midlife to live well, move well and feel frigging amazing in their bodies.

I'll be sharing my own story and chatting with other women about their journeys over Ocean of Women

Ocean of Women is building and growing with me, for you. Join the FREE Facebook group - link in bio

PS...look out for the first online event details coming soon 😊

I can already feel my bum 🤣

There's too much performance on social media so here is my real life confession.

After 15 years teaching Pilates I know life gets in the way, and alot of life stuff lately has got in the way for me.

I also know I have the skills to restart and all I needed was to remember where I found that courage to do tough things before..

To start a new life after a car accident in my early 20s

To go back and start dancing again to finish my degree in my late 20s

To start again after divorce at 40 and now this breakup at 46

To start a life in another county and in another country

To start after ill health, grief of loved ones and injury.

To start playing a new sport or restarting one in my 40s.

The transferable skills and a smidge of love to consider myself for a change.

Let me know if you can relate below or by DM

Its out there...

I am a movement specialist, educator and researcher with over 20 years of practice at the intersection of body, place and wellbeing.

I'm affirming my journey with two long planned qualifications in blue health, Neuropsychology and Psychology.

Movement • Mind • Motion

I have founded four studios, published practice-led research, made award winning dance films and poetry and spent my career watching, listening and guiding women as a through movement and wellness.

I have also started over. More than once.

Had to smile whilst my life burned around me.

Fought the urge to run and hide.

Been the subject of mistreatment, professionally and personally.

I created Ocean of Women because I know what it is to lose yourself inside a life that looks fine from the outside. I have walked this path. And I am here to support yours.

What a beautiful breakdown...

This photo was the beginning. The moment I literally watched the sun come up after everything I had put faith in broke down. Heartbroken and grieving.

It was the moment a little voice inside said NO MORE.

Most of you here know me as a Pilates Movement Specialist who runs a studio.

Several of you know from my posts I have a deep love of water, an affinity with the sea.

Some of you may know me as a champion for women's health.

A few of you know how my own journey shaped my career.

None of you know me as the women who went through some of the darkest moments in my life recently. How that affected my whole self.

In 2014 I launched a niche sport programme, in 2020 it went online. It was groundbreaking and unique, until it was copied.

In 2020 I tested a women's health coaching programme, it worked, some of you tested it for me.

A combination of life, covid and politics. I lost my confidence, I was unable to show up. It stopped me from using my voice.

Attempts to relaunch halted by my low confidence. Then blocked because my home life at times was unbearable. Silence.

For the last 18 months I have been trying to fuse it all together, against another tide with no pattern.

My physical & mental health as well as my business voice and my home were drastically affected.

It came to a head in November 2025 & January 2026.

I have spent months stripping everything and rebuilding my very soul, my entire foundations. Held by friendship, family, therapy, education and complete strangers 🙏

I have been studying, writing, soul searching, stargazing, wave watching, processing and learning from these experiences.

There is more study ahead for this but...

I am nearly ready to launch the first part.

It is

Finally embracing my voice, my work, what I love and know what I was built for.

I hope you join me ✨️

2 truths and a lie...

Imagine a whole Summer with no sun at all

Imagine buying a designer handbag only to find out it's a fake!

Imagine going to a Pilates class and finding out you are not getting Pilates!

2 of those are sadly true and happen daily.

Let's chat spades...

A spade doesn't pretend to be a garden fork, it does a similar job but ultimately you get more on a spade than a fork, you get more work from a spade, you dig deeper.

So many people experiencing Pilates for the first time and they hurt themselves or it's so intense they are overwhelmed. Those people expected a PILATES class and unknowingly to them they got something very VERY different, or that turned up to an actual Pilates class and wondered where the squats were 🫨

Now imagine those people don't ever try it again with a knowledgeable teacher teaching the method as it was intended 😢

It's happened twice this week, 2 people injured or put off Pilates...

A story I'm hearing all to often 🤬

One in her late 20s wanting to follow the trend of Reformer Pilates classes only to get injured doing 'feet in straps'

Another mid 50s given intermediate exercises in a 'beginners flow' class, groin strain and totally overwhelmed by the reps and 'holds'.

Thankfully I administered damage control and have helped them find their confidence using the apparatus and both are thriving in their movement and mindset.

It's angering me that our industry is getting diluted, with excuses of progressive movement, this is what Joe would have done - at NO point did Joseph Pilates say do this to music, pulse incessantly, squat and lunge and have no precision or learn control.

And let's not be so presumptuous to speak for the ONLY master in this method, Joseph Pilates!

Pilates needs deinfluencing...we have a duty of care to inform. There's room for everyone doing their thing but let's start being honest, call a spade a spade, have some integrity and humility in what we are teaching, instructing and delivering to the public.

To all the women of the world...

Never stop dreaming of the day we are equally heard, seen, respected and loved worldwide. Equal in power and opportunity. A day where we all have full governance over our bodies.

To all the amazing women in my life - I send you gratitude for being the recipient of your wisdom, love and inspiration.

Love to you all ❤️
