Monique came to me 6 months ago to start Pilates . What can I say about this beautiful young girl - she just gets it !!! She moves with such ease, power and control and I really am so proud of how much she has grown in such a short space of time . Monique has since gone onto doing the BASI Pilates course to become an instructor herself and I can’t wait to see what lies ahead for her in her Pilates journey . 🤩

“ I started doing Pilates in March 2021 and I absolutely fell in love with it and her style of teaching . Pilates makes me feel strong , energised and relaxes my mind . I enjoyed our sessions so much that I enrolled to become an instructor myself and completed my course in September . Our weekly sessions are a highlight to me ! Thank you so much for showing me the endless possibilities that Pilates has to offer as well as being my mentor . I cannot begin to explain my gratitude for all the help along the way “ -

Meet Lexi, aka Chicken and the sunshine to my Wednesday afternoons. We laugh and have countless blooper pics and videos but we also work hard . Lexi is a strong , competitive triathlete and personal trainer. She loves to be challenged ( so I throw the book at her ) Pilates has enormous benefits for triathletes and it’s so awesome seeing that first hand with Lexi.💪

“ I started Pilates with Viv about a year ago and I can honestly say it had been the best addition to my sport . She focuses on sport specific exercises that she knows will translate positively to my multi-sports endeavours, specifically on running strength . Not only that but the core and stability work she challenges me with make my cycling so much stronger . She puts a lot of emphasis on form, as well as controlling the exercise and not just allowing me to power through the exercise which she knows I tend to do .
I have never felt the positive effects of any sport as fast as I have with Pilates. It targets the exact area I want to improve strength in and I absolutely love it so much “.

For the last couple of weeks I have been posting Pics of my

clients , together with their Pilates journeys . While I am very appreciative of all their kind words about me , really the focus for me is on them. Everyone knows I love Pilates, that’s a given but
I think so often the focus is on us as instructors .
However I want to know how they feel and what they have gained from doing Pilates , how there bodies have changed , their awareness of imbalances and correcting them , how it’s helped them in other areas of exercise

So meet Brodie , a fire cracker 💥naughty as hell , full of fun and drama😂 but also intent on always pushing harder and determined to execute the exercises properly. Brods does cross training 3 times a week with an awesome personal trainer and has included Pilates into her exercise regime .
👊👊👊👊👊👊
Vivs in depth understanding of the body and it’s mechanics in combination with her soft ( “ that not what she says in the studio 😂”) and professional demeanor has allowed me to grow in Pilates at my own pace whilst getting stronger during each and every session . Learning to engage even the deepest muscles and to understand my body has been fundamental in allowing me to grow in other areas of my training …..

Anoushka🌸Is so good at connecting the mind and the body which is one of the fundamental principles of Pilates . She has gained tremendous strength especially in her upper body and core since she first started Pilates. This is what she had to say about her journey ...
▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️
“Pilates with Viv is like my sanity check every week. I’m definitely someone who needs a push to exercise , but I really enjoy my sessions with Viv. I’ve tried group classes and Pilates at gym , but having one- on - one classes are so much more beneficial . She’s always mindful of weak area , yet still manages to find alternative ways to punish ( I mean exercise ) every part of the body . Thanks Viv for helping me keep this creaky body strong for as long as possible .”▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️
“Punish “ I have no idea what she’s talking about 😇😜💪

This is Cindy 🌸

Cinds was my very first client 12 years ago when I just started out in my study with a few mats and a swiss ball . Pilates never gets easier no matter how long you’ve been doing it . The longer you train the deeper you go and the more challenged you can be . I know Cinds will back me up on this one 💪
🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹
This is her story
After a remarkable 12 years of training with inspirational Viv, I still find myself challenged and motivated , ( always something new up Viv’s sleeve 🤩)
I noticed how much Pilates has benefited me in other training, when comparing my form to others I train with . Although tough at times, Vivienne has highlighted weak areas and stimulated change . Pilates and Viv gives me belief in longevity for my physical health.

Cinds you deserve a medal for enduring all the “ punishment “ for 12 years . 🤪
