I have enjoyed teaching Pilates for over 10 years & originally discovered Pilates when I was looking for ways to reduce the pain from sciatica. I trained with Body Control Pilates which is founded by Lynne Robinson, one of the world's top-selling Pilates authors. A few years ago I became a Low back pain specialist and have been delighted to be involved in one of Lynne's books, 'Pilates for Life'. As for my sciatica, I haven't had any pain since.

BODY CONTROL PILATES

Body Control Pilates is widely seen as a benchmark for safe and effective teaching of the highest quality.

It is Europe's largest professional Pilates organisation. All certified Body Control Pilates teachers have at a minimum

completed a comprehensive training course and work to a laid-down Code of Practice governing teaching standards, professional ethics and continuing education.​

Body Control Pilates is a registered trademark used under licence.Body Control Pilates.

Pilates is being recognised more and more in the UK and over the world. I am proud to be part of the Pilates World, helping and encouraging people to move and exercise their bodies and noticing the benefits in work, play and everyday life.

​

I find it so rewarding to help people achieve their goals and feel better in themselves mentally and physically. Whilst Pilates is under one title it can help so many in so many different ways.

My clients include those that suffer from low back pain, joint pain, back surgery, Parkinson's, arthritis, diabetes, scoliosis, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia and those wanting to keep a healthy back or healthy lifestyle full of fun and wellness.

QUALIFYING AS A LOW BACK PAIN SPECIALIST

More than 80% of the adult population suffer from low back pain at some time in their life. It is one of the most

common reasons why people take time off work, and may be distressing and frustrating as quality of life often suffers.

It's one of the reasonsI undertook extensive training exclusively related to exercise referral and low back pain to qualify as

a Low Back Pain Specialist.

​

As a Back4Good Practitioner, I am an exercise specialist who is trained to help people with non-specific low back pain.

This training has been externally accredited by SkillsActive and The Register of Exercise Professionals who oversee quality

and standards for the UK health and fitness industry. In addition, the Back4Good programme fulfils one of the three

Core Treatments for NICE Guidance on Low Back Pain.
