After working for many years as an International Sales & Marketing Director for a FTSE 100 Company, I decided to completely change my career and life, and to focus on my own health and wellbeing.
I had started Pilates on the advice of a Chiropractor following years of lower back pain and after experiencing the positive effects that Pilates had on my own body, posture, and overall wellbeing, I decided to train as a Pilates teacher and follow my passion.
I trained with Body Control London, recognised as a world-leading education provider for Pilates training. Body Control is also a founder of the recently established Society for the Pilates Method (SPM), a new professional body set up to underpin the quality and integrity of Pilates teacher training and teaching.
​
Working closely with people of all ages and abilities over the years, I have seen first-hand how controlled movement can have such remarkable benefits on both physical and mental wellbeing.
