“Pilates is great for Every Body”

Emma trained as a Fitness Instructor initially, then specialised in Pilates, completing her Mat level 3 qualification in London in 2010. Since the Emma has taught at Nizels, Sandrines, Boundes Studio and set up her own mat studio and personal training classes.

Emma teaches mat and reformer classes based on the original repertoire by Joseph Pilates called Contrology but adds adaptations and modifications to meet the needs of each client. She does vary each class by changing the sequences, incorporating standing work, using Pilates small equipment to add challenge and improve technique. This helps clients to progress and to improve their balance, posture, alignment, strength and flexibility. Emma also encourages clients to work with their breath which can aid movement and wellbeing.

Emma has over 10 years of experience teaching a varied client base in classes or on a one to one basis and always tries to offer a personalised approach.
