From an early age dance and exercise was an extremely important element in my life.

I took up Latin and Ballroom dance as young as ten, and gradually worked my way through all the levels to the highest standard of gold.

Years of exercise in local gyms and leisure centres followed, as did marriage and my three children.     Yet somehow I always managed to find the time to regularly exercise and keep myself fit and healthy.

Finding myself made redundant five years ago, after being in the same trading company for over seventeen years, was a huge wake up call! It was time to change my life to do something that I enjoyed doing.  I had a wealth of experience gained over the past twenty-five years of exercise and felt I was in a position to know what worked and what didn’t.  I wanted to help others and give them some of the experience that I had gained.

I decided then that I was now going to train to teach something I had a huge passion for, exercise. 

I qualified first to teach exercise to music, but my real love was for Pilates.

I had been lucky enough when I first discovered Pilates to have an excellent teacher who unfortunately moved    to another location, and I personally found it increasing difficult to find another Pilates teacher who held her knowledge and gave us students such an interesting and beneficial class.

I am now a Level 3 qualified Pilates teacher, and always give all of my clients a well structured lesson, and always take into account any injuries or illness they may have.  I have a huge interest in all of the people that I teach,  as I wish for them to gain the best out of a form of exercise namely Pilates which cannot I feel be beaten !
