Movement is medicine!
Midlife can come with a special selection of challenges. Many women I start working with have lost connection to themselves, feel disempowered, like failures, have lost confidence, and feel like old ladies. They want to get back into exercise but feel ashamed of stepping into a gym; they are used to being busy and resent the forced 'take it easy' time. They want to be able to do activities they used to not even think about doing.
We want to feel vibrant as we enter our golden years, and we can if we do something about it.
My clients who are 60+ are my inspiration to move more. They have great mobility, strength, stamina, and balance and are living life to the fullest - hillwalking, skiing, running about after grandkids... They are amazing. Why? Because they have been coming to my classes for over a decade, they are the rebels who will not get old and frail.
My other clients, the ones with long-term health conditions, IBD (like myself), or have arthritis, MS, CFS/ME, osteoporosis or hypermobility, among other conditions, are rebelling against the prognosis that their health is just going to deteriorate. They are pushing back and showing those doctors what can be done.
Be a rebel. Move more. Use movement as your medicine. Improve your mobility, strength, balance, and stamina and elevate your mind and body today. Take back control, and empower yourself to maintain your freedom and independence.

Debbie's Story
Debbie in her mid 50’s first came to me in May 2023 looking to build confidence in her movements so she could start going back to group classes. Debbie is autistic, has low-grade asthma, high-cholesterol, osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis and connective tissue disease, hypermobile. low back pain caused by prolapsed discs. She has also been challenged with depression and anxiety - which influenced her giving up exercise, and have been the driving force to get her back to exercise as she knows the benefits of exercise in improving her mental health. Through her younger years she had loved going to the gym, being active and fit and was upset with the limitations of her movement, suggestions from the doctors and hospital were making her worse. We initially worked together 1:1 to assess what she was able to do, what movements felt good, what didn’t feel good, where her body was tight and where the hypermobility was allowing her to move too far and causing issues. Building confidence in her own body, in her movements, and strengthening her body so she could move without pain was a priority. Within 3 months she felt confident to come along to an in-person Pilates beginners class with me and also got me along to her place of work to run a fortnightly Yoga class for herself and other neurodivergent adults. Debbie is a fantastic example of using mind-body exercises to vastly improve her health and well-being.
Kirsty's Story
Kirsty, was 45 when she first came to Pilates beginners back in 2011, she was very quiet and shy in class, at the end of the first course, she asked if it was okay for her to do the beginners course again to build more confidence. Over the years she has attended at least 2 classes per week both when we were in person before 2020 and online since 2020 and been keen for her friends and people she knew who would benefit to come along to class - she even used to pop in past her pharmacist to bring him and his wife along to class. She had chronic pain in her hips, osteoporosis and arthritis and didn’t want any of these to hold her back. She loves cycling, swimming, playing tennis, going for walks and being by the sea. Because of the osteoporosis and arthritis she ended up needing to have both her hips replaced. But she used a regular Pilates practice with me at my live online classes and using my Pilates & Yoga at home videos as part of her pre-habilitaion for her surgeries and also for the rehabilitation which got her back up and moving around quickly. Since having had both hips replaced and her regular Pilates classes she has also been attending core classes for handstand skills, and pre 2020 she had even done some ariel hoop classes! Kisrty is an amazing example of what CAN be done. If anyone in class is looking for a challenging option for class it’s Kirsty.
