Mind Strength Movement


MY STORY
I first discovered a love of Pilates whilst working in a fast paced and pressurised working environment. My life then changed direction when I became a Mum to 3 children and that was what really focussed my mind on the need to improve my core stability, strength and flexibility. Pilates was the obvious solution to those challenges and it also allowed me to have a little bit of 'me time'.
​
In 2019 I embarked on the journey of becoming a Pilates teacher and am now certified to undertake both mat and reformer equipment based classes having gained a Level 3 Diploma in mat-work and qualifications in Reformer equipment training in affiliation with the Alan Herdman Pilates School, London.
