Originally trained in classical ballet and contemporary dance I first came to Pilates as part of my dance training. I found after a while that I was most interested in perfecting movement rather than performing it so it was a natural progression to begin to teach Pilates. I have been practising Pilates for over 15 years and after training with Body Control in 2004 I went on to teach in the Body Control Pilates Studio. Over that time I have worked closely with physiotherapists, osteopaths, athletes and run regular trips overseas which also include other activities such as surfing and yoga. I have since qualified with both Matwork Master and Studio Master advanced certifications and am a senior teacher at the BCP Studio and of the BCPA Teacher Training team. In 2010 I trained to teach Quantum Yoga (with Yoga Alliance), a prescriptive form of Yoga that teaches the practitioner to create the ultimate personalised practice using the Ayurvedic principles of the doshas.
A natural fusion of the disciplines is evolving in my teaching and although they can be defined very differently many unions in principles can be found.
My particular teaching is style is engergetic but intuitive, paying particular attention to achieving a greater sense of awareness and proprioception, thus enabling my clients to reach their physical fitness goals more efficiently and effectively.
