I’ve always loved Pilates for the way it builds real strength through slow, controlled movement. So I teach the kind of class I’d want to go to myself: something that feels like a deep breath, not a punishment.

I’m a Level 3 qualified mat Pilates instructor based here in North Devon. My classes are strong, slow and a bit sweaty, always led by the breath, with a focus on control, good form and building strength from the inside out. Expect a good playlist, no shouting and nobody talking about “burning off” breakfast.

Whether you’re brand new to Pilates or have been practising for years, my classes are welcoming and adaptable to wherever you’re at that day. We always finish with a short meditation to bring you home to your body, so you leave feeling better than when you arrived.
