ABOUT ME

I studied ballet and contemporary dance for over ten years both in Germany and the UK. As a professional dancer I heard about Pilates and started to take up classes with Milena Regis at the Body Conditioning Studio run by Dreas Reineke. Milena herself was a dancer and taught me how to use Pilates to strengthen my dance technique and improve my overall health and fitness. Immensely enjoying the benefits of Pilates, I continued my professional development by taking up teacher training with Alan Herdman.

Alan learned about Pilates in New York working with instructors, who had been trained by Joseph Pilates himself. When he returned to the UK, he set up the first Pilates studio in Britain. To find out more about Alan, please visit his website.

During teacher training, I learned how Pilates can help with general fitness but also how it can be safely applied helping with injuries or medical conditions. Once fully qualified, I started teaching both Pilates mat classes and in dedicated studios using specialized, spring-resistance equipment. I currently teach regularly at Pilates Central in Islington I hold mat classes in Ealing and teach private classes in the area. I cover classes and studio work across London.

Alongside practicing and teaching Pilates, I study Yoga with various teachers in London. In June 2008 I completed the Life Centre's 18-months yoga teacher training level one, fully qualifying as yoga teacher. I continue to take workshops and teacher training intensives to further my Pilates and Yoga education.
